Barges, I would like to go with you,
I would like to sail the ocean blue.
Barges, have you treasures in your hold?
Do you fight with pirates brave and bold?
Out of my window looking in the night,
I can see the barges flickering light.
Silently flows the river to the sea,
As the barges go by silently.
Out of my window looking in the night,
I can see the barges flickering light.
Starboard shining green and port is shining red,
I can see the barges from my bed.
Out of my window looking in the night,
I can see the barges flickering light.
Now is the time I will soon be gone
I will sail with barges on and on
Out of my window looking in the night,
I can see the barges flickering light.
But I must stay here by my window, dear
As the barges sail away from here
Barges, I would like to go with you,
I would like to sail the ocean blue.
Barges, have you treasures in your hold?
Do you fight with pirates brave and bold?
I would like to sail the ocean blue.
