| 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 cling together
|
| Happy, we sing together
|
| Happy, with the ferry boat serenade
|
| I am happy, very, very happy
|
| When we’re on the ferry
|
| The music is so merry
|
| There’s a man who plays the concertina
|
| On the moonlit upper deck arena, arena
|
| I love to ride the ferry
|
| Where music is so merry
|
| There’s a man who always plays the concertina, oh my
|
| On the moonlit upper deck arena, by and by
|
| While the boys and girls are dancing, oh dancing
|
| While, while the sweethearts are romancing
|
| Life is like a mardi-gras
|
| Funiculi, funicula
|
| Happy, we cling together
|
| Happy, we sing together
|
| Happy with the ferry boat serenade
|
| ------ instrumental break ------
|
| I love to ride the ferry
|
| Sailing, sailing where, where the music is so merry
|
| There’s a man who just plays the concertina
|
| On the moonlit upper deck arena
|
| All the while the boys and girls are dancing
|
| Look around and you see sweethearts romancing
|
| Life is like a mardi-gras
|
| Funiculi, funicula
|
| Happy, we cling together
|
| Happy, we sing together
|
| Happy, with the ferry boat serenade |
