Steamboat, steamboat   Take me home tonight.   For there's a girl that I want to hold tight.   She's waiting for me at the pier.   It feels like I've been waiting for years.      Steamboat, steamboat   Don't slow down around the river bend.   Tell the captain the moon will light   Our way again.   Pulling up to the dock just around eleven   O'clock.      Same girl different town, she's always moving around.   Where ever she is   That's where I'm found, that's where you'll find me.   I'll buy my tickets at the station   I'm tired of chasing you   Every night a new destination   And off we go to the sweetest girl I know   Chug-a long chug-a long      Steamboat, steamboat   Won't you hurry along the way   I see the morning climbing the sky   The moon is changing in time   And our eyes are speaking in rhyme.
