The Jamestown Ferry — текст песни (Tanya Tucker)

(Robert Borchers/Mack Vickery)

He just caught the Jamestown Ferry,
It`s not a hot day in January,
Like he said it`d be if he ever left me.
A case of gone was all he carried,
As he got on the Jamestown Ferry,
And he said that gone was all he`d ever be.

I didn`t think that he`d leave me,
After sayin` how much he needs me.
But the fact still remains I`m sittin` here all alone.
Missin` the lovin` of my baby, Lord, it`s bout to drive me crazy.
He was the sweetest piece of heaven I`ve ever known.

He just caught the Jamestown Ferry,
It`s not a hot day in January,
Like he said it`d be if he ever left me.
A case of gone was all he carried,
As he got on the Jamestown Ferry,
And he said that gone was all he`d ever be.

As I walk through his kingdom,
Of honky tonks and bars,
Well, I remember how he`d hold me and comfort me with talk.
He didn`t cuss with every breath, he had a soothing Southern drawl,
He made me feel like a lady through it all.

He just caught the Jamestown Ferry,
It`s not a hot day in January,
Like he said it`d be if he ever left me.
A case of gone was all he carried,
As he got on the Jamestown Ferry,
And he said that gone was all he`d ever be.

He just caught the Jamestown Ferry,
It`s not a hot day in January,
Like he said it`d be if he ever left me.
A case of gone was all he carried,
As he got on the Jamestown Ferry,
And he said that gone was all he`d ever be.
