Ferry Me Across The Water lyrics
‘Ferry me across the water,
Do, boatman do.’
‘If you’ve a penny in your purse I’ll ferry you.’
‘I have a penny in my purse
And my eyes are blue;
So ferry me across the water,
Do, boatman, do.’
‘Step into my ferry boat
Be they black or blue,
And for the penny in your purse
I’ll ferry you.’
Do, boatman do.’
‘If you’ve a penny in your purse I’ll ferry you.’
‘I have a penny in my purse
And my eyes are blue;
So ferry me across the water,
Do, boatman, do.’
‘Step into my ferry boat
Be they black or blue,
And for the penny in your purse
I’ll ferry you.’
