Boz Scaggs - Steamboat Lyrics

You know I talked to my captain this morning
He said we're 500 miles off shore
And if you don't get a telegram or letter
You'll know your baby don't love you no more

Whoah... steamboat
C'mon now... steamboat
Steamboat...
Mmmm... steamboat
Please carry me on home to my love

Well I gotta find out pretty baby
Tell me do you want your daddy back
I got a whole lot of water to burn up
And its not the dead end of this track

Whoah... steamboat
C'mon now... steamboat
Steamboat...
Mmmm...steamboat
Please carry me on home to my love

Well Jonah lived a while
In the belly of a whale
The Bible says its true
Well I'd jump right in the ocean
Get eat up by a whale
To get back home to you

Whoah... steamboat
C'mon now... steamboat
Steamboat...
Mmmm...steamboat
Please carry me on home to my love

Well I gotta find out pretty baby
Tell me do you want your daddy back
I got a whole lot of water to burn up
And its not the dead end of the track

Whoah... steamboat
C'mon now... steamboat
Steamboat...
Mmmm...steamboat
Please carry me on home to my love
Please carry me on home to my love
