lyrics

Here I am, once again, at the day's remains
Watching the rolling hills and the cities on the plains
The thought of you is in my mind, and underneath my skin
You know it's right in front of you, but your mind won't take it in

Once I was a singer on the Maybelle Ferry Line
My song made me famous, though I didn't ever see a dime
All my pain and sorrow was too much to carry on my way
And if I close my eyes, I might never see the light of another day

My belle is behind me, but she'll be there in my dreams
And I wanted to see more of her, but I was glad for all I'd seen
And if anyone should ask you where I'm going this time
I'm sailing down the river on the Maybelle Ferry Line

I'm sailing down the river on the Maybelle Ferry Line
