I have never been aboard a steamer
|
I am just content to be a dreamer
|
Even if I could afford a steamer
|
I will take the ferry boat every time
|
|
I love to ride the ferry
|
Where music is so merry
|
There's a man who plays the concertina
|
On the moonlit upper deck arena
|
|
While boys and girls are dancing
|
While sweethearts are romancing
|
Life is like a mardi-gras
|
Funiculi, funicula
|
|
Happy, we cling together
|
Happy, we sing together
|
Happy, with the ferry boat serenade
|
|
I am happy, very, very happy
|
When we're on the ferry
|
The music is so merry
|
There's a man who plays the concertina
|
On the moonlit upper deck arena, arena
|
|
I love to ride the ferry
|
Where music is so merry
|
There's a man who always plays the concertina, oh my
|
On the moonlit upper deck arena, by and by
|
|
While the boys and girls are dancing, oh dancing
|
While, while the sweethearts are romancing
|
Life is like a mardi-gras
|
Funiculi, funicula
|
|
Happy, we cling together
|
Happy, we sing together
|
Happy with the ferry boat serenade
|
|
------ instrumental break ------
|
|
I love to ride the ferry
|
Sailing, sailing where, where the music is so merry
|
There's a man who just plays the concertina
|
On the moonlit upper deck arena
|
|
All the while the boys and girls are dancing
|
Look around and you see sweethearts romancing
|
Life is like a mardi-gras
|
Funiculi, funicula
|
|
Happy, we cling together
|
Happy, we sing together
|
Happy, with the ferry boat serenade
|
