I swing a hammer but you know I'd rather Hang my slicker where the boatmen gather And I have heard angels singin' Sweet hallelujas high in the riggin' |
Chorus: Oh yes, and I'll be ready When they call my number I'm gonna get a, one way ticket On a providence ferry Gonna carry me home and I'm gonna let it |
Set one, drive, it's an ancient rythmn Better listen to the music in the name you're given Joe was a carpenter that's for certain Gonna sing that song until they bring down the curtain |
Chorus |
Rock my soul out on the water Safe in the bosom of the ocean's daughter Rope and canvas, oak and tide Gonna carry me over to the other side. |
Chorus |
