Roger Whittaker "River Lady" |
The day the river freezes Is the day it won�t seem fair �Cause they�ll come to get the River Lady And I don�t think they�ll care I know they�ll scrape her paint off In their same old foolish ways Now the people see the river But the old ships gone away Water turns cold and gets ta freezin� Before you even know it The old girl�s easin� Away from her berth Round by the point And out of our view Off in the mist Her engine�s woundin� Like on the banks That old horn�s soundin� A little goodbye A little I�ll do what I must do A little goodbye A little I�ll do what I must do A da da dum, dum, dum, da da da dum dum I know I will remember When I cannot hear that horn That would roll up by the mountains As she took us through the storm I know they�ve got to take her But I can�t say I approve �Cause she�s won so many battles That I hate to see her lose Water turns cold and gets ta freezin� Before you even know it The old girl�s easin� Away from her berth Round by the point And out of our view A little goodbye A little I�ll do, what I must do The water turns cold And gets to freezin� Before you even know it The old girl�s easin� Away from her berth �Round by the point And out of our view Off in the mist Her engine�s boundin� Like on the banks That old horn�s soundin� A little goodbye A little I�ll do What I must do A little goodbye A little I�ll do What I must do Dum da da da-dum...
