BARGES


Out of my window looking in the night
I can see the barges'flickering light
Silently flows the river to the sea
As the barges do go silently

CHORUS

Barges, I would like to come with you
I would like to sail the ocean blue
Barges, have you treasures in your hold
Do you fight with pirates brave and bold

Out of my window looking in the night
I can see the barges" flickering light
Starboard shines green and port is glowing red.
I can see the barges far ahead.

CHORUS

How my heart longs to sail away with you.
As you sail across the ocean blue
But I must stay beside my ocean clear
As I watch you sail away from here
CHORUS

Away from my window on into the night
I will watch till they are out of sight
Taking their cargo far across the sea
I wish that someday they'd take me.
