The Narrowboat Song
The folks 'round here they all cruise down the cut
Going under that bridge and across that aqueduct
The rain won't wash them out and they don't give in
When the sun comes up they're back on their boats again
Well it's up that lock and down that lock we go
Taking it easy living on a narrowboat
Life is sweet if you keep yourself afloat
Taking it easy living on a narrowboat
A beautiful day aboard our floating home
Taking a trip down past that winding hole
Railroad and the towpath to the right
Kettle's on the stove we're mooring up for the night
Well it's up that lock and down that lock we go
Taking it easy living on a narrowboat
Life is sweet if you keep yourself afloat
Taking it easy living on a narrowboat
I discovered this song on a YouTube channel called ‘Ticking Over’ but have not, as yet, identified the song writer
and performer.
