Title: On The Robert E. Lee

------------------

Hey

Look at the way she's wavin' her sail

It's a wondrous sight to see

People hurry on down from every town

Have a look at the Robert E. Lee

Proud and strong and made to be free

Can't go wrong on the Robert E. Lee

Got the sun in my eyes

And the wind in my face

And it's good just to be alive

Gonna set out tonight for New Orleans

I won't sleep till I arrive

And if I'm lucky,

I'll find a young lady under the stars

And we'll dance the night away

Somebody wake me and say it's a dream

Leadin' me far from my home

And haven't you noticed

Despite what it seems

You can't deny it's you and I alone

Maybe spend my life just workin' the land

Maybe livin' from day to day

But I'm free tonight in New Orleans

If I like it, I just might stay

Proud and strong and made to be free

Can't go wrong on the Robert E. Lee

Got the sun in my eyes

And the wind in my face

And it's good just to be alive

Gonna set out tonight for New Orleans

I won't sleep till I arrive
