Riverboat Man

Oh ho, the riverboat man
Do you know exactly where I am?
Oh ho‚ you’re gonna’ get burned
Remembering the lesson that you never learned

I once knew a man‚ for goodness’ sake
Tied his puppy to a rock and threw it in the lake
But when it grew up‚ it came back for him
And made the old man pay for his sin

Oh ho, the riverboat man
Do you know exactly where I am?
Oh ho, you’re gonna’ get burned
Remembering the lesson that you never learned

Down by the flowing stream
Things aren’t always as they seem
Sometimes you have to take a dip
If you want to feel the best devil-fying (*?) drip
Call the name of the riverboat man
Watch him gracefully raise his hand
Call on the spirits with all his might
Cast forth the puppy into the sunlight

Oh ho‚ the riverboat man
Do you know exactly where I am?
Oh ho, you’re gonna’ get burned
Remembering the lesson that you never learned

As you walk down, past the banks of the river
Behold the (*?) riverboat man in all his mighty power and glory
Know I am the riverboat man
