boat of silver lyrics
[verse 1]
oh, many ships tarry in the harbor
many roads wind across the hill
and many roses grow on the arbor
many’s the girl waits for me there still

[chorus]
for swiftly come all the tides returning
swiftly go then and will not stay
there is no boatman can net the morning
there is no boatman can net the day

[verse 2]
oh, the fish run deep, oh, they run so deeply
i cannot find them in the seas
the lonely road winds the hill so steeply
i’ll lay me down now and take my ease

[chorus]
for swiftly come all the tides returning
swiftly go then and will not stay
there is no boatman can net the morning
thеre is no boatman can net the day

[verse 4]
oh, thе rose that blooms blows its petals over
and the th*rns lie upon the bough
the girls have gone now to a different lover
they will not linger beside me now
[chorus]
for swiftly come all the tides returning
swiftly go then and will not stay
there is no boatman can net the morning
there is no boatman can net the day

[verse 5]
oh, i will build me a boat of silver
steer it with a golden oar
and i will row out of this sad harbor
and never sail back to this dark shore

[chorus]
for swiftly come all the tides returning
swiftly go then and will not stay
there is no boatman can net the morning
there is no boatman can net the day

[outro]
there is no boatman can net the morning
there is no boatman can net the day
