| She just caught the Jamestown Ferry
|
| It’s not a hot day in January
|
| Like she said it’d be
|
| If she ever left me
|
| A case of gone was all she carried
|
| As she got on the Jamestown Ferry
|
| And she said that gone was all she’d ever be
|
| I didn’t think that she’d leave me
|
| After sayin' how much she needs me
|
| But the fact still remains
|
| I’m sittin' here all alone
|
| Missin' the lovin' of my baby
|
| Lord, it’s about to drive me crazy
|
| She was the sweetest piece of heaven I’ve ever known
|
| She just caught the Jamestown Ferry
|
| It’s not a hot day in January
|
| Like she said it’d be
|
| If she ever left me
|
| A case of gone was all she carried
|
| As she got on the Jamestown Ferry
|
| And she said that gone was all she’d ever be
|
| As I walk through that valley
|
| Of honky tonks and bars
|
| I remember how she’d hold me
|
| And comfort me with talk
|
| She didn’t cuss with every breath
|
| She had a soothing southern drawl
|
| Made me feel like a man through it all
|
| She just caught the Jamestown Ferry
|
| It’s not a hot day in January
|
| Like she said it’d be
|
| If she ever left me |
