The Er-i-ee Was A'Rising |
| We were forty miles from Albany |
| Forget it I never shall |
| What a terrible storm we had one night |
| On the ER-I-EE Canal |
| We were forty miles from Albany |
| Forget it I never shall |
| What a terrible storm we had one night |
| On the ER-I-EE Canal |
| Ooh… the ER-I-EE was risin' |
| And the gin was gettin' low |
| And I scarcely think |
| We’ll get a little drink |
| 'Til we get to Buffalo |
| 'Til we get to Buffalo |
| We were loaded down with barley |
| And the crew was full of rye |
| And the captain he looked down at me |
| With a strange look in his eye |
| The ER-I-EE was risin' |
| And the gin was gettin' low |
| And I scarcely think |
| We’ll get a little drink |
| 'Til we get to Buffalo |
| 'Til we get to Buffalo |
| Now… the cook she was a grand old gal |
| She wore a ragged dress |
| So we hoisted her upon the pole |
| As a signal of distress |
| The ER-I-EE was risin' |
| And the gin was gettin' low |
| And I scarcely think |
| We’ll get a little drink |
| 'Til we get to Buffalo |
| 'Til we get to Buffalo |
| Now… the girls they’re in the Police Gazette |
| And the crew wound up in jail |
| And I’m the only son of a sea cook |
| Left to tell the tale |
| Ooh… the ER-I-EE was risin' |
| And the gin was gettin' low |
| And I scarcely think |
| We’ll get a little drink |
| 'Til we get to Buffalo |
| 'Til we get to Buffalo |
| Ooh… the ER-I-EE was risin' |
| And the gin was gettin' low |
| And I scarcely think |
| We’ll get a little drink |
| 'Til we get to Buffa… get to Buffalo |
| Get to Buffalo |
| Ooh… the ER-I-EE was risin' |
