The day the river freezes
is the day it won't seem fair
'Cos 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 ship's gone away.
Water turns cold
and gets to freezing
Before you even know
it the old girl's easing
Away from her berth
round by the point and out of our view
Off in the mist
her engines pounding
Back on the banks
that old horn's sounding
A little goodbye
a little I'll do what I must do
A little goodbye
a little I'll do what I must do.
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
'Cos she's won so many battles
That I hate to see her lose.
Water turns cold
and gets to freezing
Before you even know
it the old girl's easing
Away from her berth
round by the point and out of our view
Off in the mist
her engines pounding
Back on the banks
that old horn's sounding
A little goodbye
a little I'll do what I must do
A little goodbye
a little I'll do what I must do.
Water turns cold
and gets to freezing
Before you even know
it the old girl's easing
Away from her berth
round by the point and out of our view
Off in the mist
her engines pounding
Back on the banks
that old horn's sounding
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 little goodbye
a little I'll do what I must do. |
