Lyrics:
my boat
Floatin' down the Flint River
Catch us up a little catfish dinner
Gonna sound like a winner
When I lay you down and love you right
Yeah,
Suzanne takes you down
To her place near the river
You can hear the boats go by
You can spend the night beside her
And you know she's half crazy
The river boat in the moonlight
Make a wish and ride the night
Delta blues n' crickets in the star-bright
That's the river folk out tonight
Floating
the things you know tell me why does the river not flow
I see trouble up ahead
Where the river boat swayed beneath the sun
Is where the river runs red
I see
Suzanne takes you down to her place near the river
You can hear the boats go by
You can spend the night beside her
And you know that she's half
Suzanne takes you down to her place near the river
You can hear the boats go by
You can spend the night beside her
And you know that she's half
the superhighways have disappeared one by one. and a
E towns and cities and signs are underwater now. they're gone. we're going down my the muddy river we're walking
On either side of the river lie
Long fields of barley and of rye
That clothe the wold and meet the sky;
And thro’ the field the road run by
Picture yourself in a boat on a river
With tangerine trees and marmalade skies.
Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly,
A girl with
a place by the river
[Chorus]
It was time when strangers were welcome here
Music would play
They tell me the days were sweet and clear
It was
blizzard season coat
Burn a bridge and burn a boat
Stake a Lizard by the throat
Go Polonius or kneel
The reapers name their harvest dawn
All your
on the river
Thirty five days on a balla [sic] line boat
I'd make a little money, get a springtime chicken
And take off a skippin in the Mississippi Dew
Young Johnny Jones he had a cute little boat
And all the girlies he would take for a float.
He had girlies on the shore,
Sweet little peaches by
And anyway for all the things you know tell me why does the river not flow
I see trouble up ahead
Where the river boat swayed beneath the sun
Is where
And anyway for all the things you know tell me why does the river not flow
I see trouble up ahead
Where the river boat swayed beneath the sun
Is where
Picture yourself in a boat on a river
With tangerine trees and marmalade skies.
Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly,

On the sidewalk Sunday morning
Lies a body oozing life
Someone's sneaking 'round the corner
Is that someone, Mack the Knife?
From a tug boat by the river
On the sidewalk Sunday morning
Lies a body oozing life
Someone's sneaking 'round the corner
Is that someone, Mack the Knife?
From a tug boat by the river
Picture yourself in boat on a river,
With tangerine trees and marmalde skies
Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly,
A girl with kaleidoscope
No one's listening to her
And the immigrants by the boat load in a dozen different tongues
Sang of freedom in the new land
Climb the ladder rung
Suzanne takes you down to her place near the river
You can hear the boats go by, you can spend the night beside her
And you know that she's
I've got fire for a heart
I'm not scared of the dark
You've never seen it look so easy
I got a river for a soul
And baby you're a boat
Baby
and the river was so long.
So, we drink to be renewed.
In the long cool evening,
Where the peacocks shiver
And the boat starts down the silver river way
At first Mom and Poppa called the little girl a lady
They raised her on the banks of a river bed
A house boat tied to a big tall tree
A home for
