Lyrics:
trouble on their minds
they passed on by us,
probably going to tend their pots
we headed up the river
with the fish we'd caught
but before we made
on the bayou fishin'
On the river float papa's great big boat that's how my papa goes into town
Makes every bit of the night and day then ever reach the place
Uncle Sam's fair land
It's that King Columbia River and the big Grand Coulee Dam
She heads up the Canadian Rockies where the rippling waters glide
Uncle Sam's fair land
It's that King Columbia River and the big Grand Coulee Dam
She heads up the Canadian Rockies where the rippling waters glide
Comes
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 you're my
crossed the ocean
They now begin to pour
Out from the boat and up the shore
Two by two they enter the jungle
And soon they number more
Three by three
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
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
At first mom and papa called their little boy Ned
They raise him on the banks of the river bed
A houseboat tied to a big tall tree a home for my
On the river float papa's great big boat that's how my papa goes into town
He takes every bit of the night and day
Then ever reach the place where the people
She started singing in the middle of night
I was captivated by her emerald eyes
I met her in the water with a rushing tide
How could I fight
Walking down by the river
Carrying my boat
I wonder will the call
Can be heard of
Does it really hurt
When I close my eyes (For the last time)
I
I used to live in a little boat river boat
Searching the ocean so blue
I used to live in a river boat little boat
Searching for someone like you
I'd
have a feeling that it's more fun
Than knowing exactly where you are
Like a stone carried on the river
Like a boat sailing on the sea
Well I keep
have a feeling that it's more fun
Than knowing exactly where you are
Like a stone carried on the river
Like a boat sailing on the sea
Well I keep
a feeling that it's more fun
Than knowing exactly where you are
I'm like a stone
Carried on the river
I'm like a boat
Sailin' on the sea
Well, I'll
a feeling that it's more fun
Than knowing exactly where you are
I'm like a stone
Carried on the river
I'm like a boat
Sailin' on the sea
Well, I'll

Climbing the walls of rock churches
With the ravens
Dm F G Bb
Old man go to the river
C A7 Dm F7
To drop his bale of woes
Bb G F Dm
He could go
The whispers
And the sounds
As I´m standing by the river
The boats
And the ferries
All make me shiver, to the bone
And the sea shore
All the stones
And he'd say, "turn it left and steer it right,
Straighten up girl, you're doing just fine"
Just a little valley by the river where we'd ride
But I was high
You are beautiful, small, and shy
You are the girl whose eyes met mine just as your boat sailed by
This I know of you, nothing more
You are
Laying on the boat floating under sun
After rain the rainbow comes
And rivers tells a tale and gone
A sad and lonely poor young man
Like many boys
