Oh ho, the riverboat man Do you know exactly where I am? Oh ho, you're gonna' get burned Remembering the lesson that you never learned I once knew a man, for goodness' sake Tied his puppy to a rock and threw it in the lake But when it grew up, it came back for him And made the old man pay for his sin Oh ho, the riverboat man Do you know exactly where I am? Oh ho, you're gonna' get burned Remembering the lesson that you never learned Down by the flowing stream Things aren't always as they seem Sometimes you have to take a dip If you want to feel the best devil-fying [?] drip Call the name of the riverboat man Watch him gracefully raise his hand Call on the spirits with all his might Cast forth the puppy into the sunlight Oh ho, the riverboat man Do you know exactly where I am? Oh ho, you're gonna' get burned Remembering the lesson that you never learned As you walk down, past the banks of the river Behold the [?] riverboat man in all his mighty power and glory Know I am the riverboat man
