about

Inspired by row row row your boat. This is the sequel, where the wooden boat is rotting and sinking from too many days on the stream. The crew has left for greener pastures and the allure of seductive vices, and the spoils of travel being lost. The ever allusive dream has yet to be found, and the

lyrics

I spent days looking for, a river to run down
Wooden ship is sinking with its feet up off the ground
I sent days looking for, a river to run down
Left the shore and now we're sea floor bound

Well my crew couldn't stay, left in the last town
Women slinging whiskey is a better way to drown
My crew couldn't stay, left in the last town
Painted lips will give the run around

Barley merrily, waiting on a dream
Barley merrily, it ain't floating down a stream
It's a ghost ship, and a death wish, for me

Well my gold went away, a penny at a time
Rubies, pearls, and diamonds well them rocks were never mine
My gold went away, a penny at a time
The good lord must be giving me a sign

Barley merrily, waiting on a dream
Barley merrily, it ain't floating down a stream
It's a ghost ship, and a death wish, for me
