slow boat

Lyrics

the river is wide, deeper than deep, on one side they're cryin', on the other they're asleep, and it's all a dream, 'least it seems like to me, might never wake up, listen to the steam, as the big wheel turns, are we headed up stream?, the fog's too thick to really see, all i know is i still float, slow boat, slow boat, i got my coat, i brought my chaps, in case we land i'm gonna need 'em for that, 'cause there might be a horse, i might need to ride, carry your message, carry the flag, to where we're goin' or am i goin' alone?, are you there? pick up the phone, i can't make out what you wrote, slow boat, slow boat, all i know is i still float, all i know, i don't know
