Nobody knows about our toilin'
Hurrah my rolling river
Only God Almighty knows about our danger
We are bound away from this world of misery
Well ahead my little bowie cry out
Hurrah my rolling river
Solid fast my little captain answer
We are bound away from this world of misery
And on our way, she'll roll and shiver
Hurrah my rolling river
Down in her way, she's for dirty water
We are bound away from this world of misery
Make her so bold, my stroke man, cry out
Hurrah my rolling river
Oh, and give me, my center man, cry out
We are bound away from this world of misery
Nobody knows about our hardship
Hurrah my rolling river
Our ship owner, she don't knows our hardship
We are bound away from this world of misery
Solid fast, my gunman, cry out
Hurrah my rolling river
Solid fast, my little second bowie, cry out
We are bound away from this world of misery
Misery into the ocean
Hurrah my rolling river
Misery in the deep wide ocean
We are bound away from this world of misery
Misery into the ocean
Hurrah my rolling river
Misery in the deep wide ocean
We are bound away from this world of misery
