The Tillers

Kishore Kumar Hits — The Tillers - Shanty Boat şarkı sözleri

Sanatçı: The Tillers

albüm: Hand on the Plow

I'm working away the hours of the day
My back and my shoulders tired
I'll build me a boat and set the thing afloat
And drift down the river side
Through locks and the bends, the river never ends
A poor boy singing my song
The rain comes in, the currents up again
A fine time for rolling along
My gal Josephine, she yells and she screams
You can hear her holler all the way to New Orleans
The fog rolls in, then I'm gone again, my shanty boat and me
She creeks and she groans, she rocks and she moans
The dragon fly leading my way
The river she speaks and sets my mind at ease
Think I'll tie up for the day
In Cincinnati town I took a look around
Louisville was lovely but I'm Mississippi bound
The fog rolls in, then I'm gone again, my shanty boat and me
Now some folks can stand to never leave the land
And got to own a country mile
The fine things so grand seem the measure of a man
But that just ain't my style
It's the river for me, and south to the sea
Ain't no better way for a poor boy to be free
The fog rolls in, then I'm gone again, my shanty boat and me
My gal Josephine, she yells and she screams
You can hear her holler all the way to New Orleans
The fog rolls in, then I'm gone again, my shanty boat and me
