Down at the Docks - Oslo Ess

Down at the docks

Down at the docks

Down at the docks

That’s where I’ll be found

When the deal goes down at the docks

Han så på meg sa:

«Down at the docks

Down at the docks

That’s where I’ll be found

When the deal goes down»

Det er stille på kaia i kveld

Kun et par ensomme tankere helt for seg selv

Så møt meg på brygga ved pir nummer 5

Presis klokka 2 AM

Og jeg er oppvokst på brygga i Son

Men jeg har aldri vært utfor en slik situasjon

Babord blir bibord

Stranda på land

På tynn is ved Oslo havn

Og det er hvitevarer og sorte penger

De har alt du trenger her

Så sa han bare:

«Down at the docks

Down at the docks»

Han sa:

«Down at the docks

That’s where I’ll be found

When the deal goes down at the docks»

Jeg bare stod der og sa:

«Down at the docks?»

«Ja, down at the docks

That’s where I’ll be found

When the deal goes down»

Og det tviler jeg ikke på

Han ga meg en lapp med telefonnummer på

Pluss førtifire, null fire tyve også åtte eller tre og noe mer

Og han sa: «Learn this number by heart

Og ikke fly rundt i byen gutt og tro du er smart

Lukten er av trøbbel

Smaken av spenn

En fiende eller en venn

Og det er hvitevarer og sorte penger

De har alt du trenger her

Så sa han bare:

«Down at the docks»

Han så på meg, sa:

«Down at the docks

Down at the docks

That’s where I’ll be found

When the deal goes down at the docks»

«Hva faen mener du med

Down at the docks?!»

That’s where I’ll be found

When the deal goes down»

It's quiet on the quay tonight

Only a few lonely thinkers all to themselves

Then meet me on the pier at pier number 5

Exactly at 2 AM

And I grew up on the pier in Son

But I have never been in such a situation

Port becomes byboard

Beach on land

On thin ice by the port of Oslo

And there are appliances and black money

They have everything you need here

Then he just said:

«Down at the docks

Down at the docks »

He said:

«Down at the docks

That’s where I’ll be found

When the deal goes down at the docks »

I just stood there and said:

"Down at the docks?"

«Yes, down at the docks

That’s where I’ll be found

When the deal goes down »

And I do not doubt that

He gave me a note with the phone number on it

Plus forty-four, zero four thieves also eight or three and something more

And he said, "Learn this number by heart."

And do not fly around the city boy and think you are smart

The smell is out of trouble

The taste of buckles

An enemy or a friend

And there are appliances and black money

They have everything you need here

Then he just said:

"Down at the docks"

He looked at me, said:

«Down at the docks

Down at the docks

That’s where I’ll be found

When the deal goes down at the docks »

'What the hell do you mean?

Down at the docks ?! »

«Down at the docks

That’s where I’ll be found

When the deal goes down »
