Here comes that boat floating down the river The south bound channel on the west side It looks like the captain`s pulling over And I`m bound to take a ride Take a ride
Well down at the dock I paid my fare I paid only one way not two I don`t know where but I`ll get there And on my way I`ll sing this tune And when the night falls down on the southern city And there`s nothing left to do but play
Well opportunity is beckoning to me And I`ll make my way back home some day
Don`t you know my daddy was a real hard worker For us he did all he could do Worked all day for the white collar man So he could send us off to school But I feel just like cryin Because I didn`t play by all his rules
Well opportunity is beckoning to me And I`ll make my way back home some day
Here comes that boat floating down the river The south bound channel on the west side It looks like the captain`s pulling over And I`m bound to take a ride Take a ride
And when the night falls down on the southern city And there`s nothing left to do but play
Well opportunity is beckoning to me And I`ll make my way back home some day
