I've Been Floatin' Down The Old Green River

(albüm: Johnny Mercer Sings, Volume 2 - 1983)

I've been floating down the old green river
On the good ship Rockin Rye'?
But I floated too far, I got stuck on a bar
I was out there alone, wishing that I was home
The ship got wrecked with the captain and crew
And there was only one thing left to do
So I had a drink the whole green river dry
To get back home to you

I've been floating down the old green river
On the good ship Rockin Rye'?
But I floated too far, I got stuck on a bar
I was tied to the mast while the went past
The ship got wrecked with the captain and crew
And there was only one thing left to do
Man I had a drink the whole green river dry
To get back home to you

I've been floating down the old green river
On the good ship Rockin Rye'?
But I floated too far, I got stuck on a bar
I was out there alone, wishing that I was home
The ship got wrecked with the captain and crew
And there was only one thing left to do
So I had a drink that whole green river dry
To get back home to you
