The Ferry Boat Serenade Lyrics
The Ferry Boat Serenade - Al Bowlly/Jimmy Mesene
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 drink together
Happy we sing together
Happy with the ferry boat serenade
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 the boys and girls are dancing
While the sweethearts are romancing
Life is like a Mardi-Gras
Funiculi funicula
Happy we cling together
Happy we sing together
Happy with the merry boat serenade
