The Levellers

The Levellers - The Boatman lyrics

rate me

If I could choose the life I please

Then I would be a boatman

On the canals and the rivers free

No hasty words are spoken

My only law is the river breeze

That takes me to the open seas

If I could choose the life I please

Then I would be a boatman

If I could choose the life I please

Then I would be a rover

And if the road was not for me

Then I would choose another

Cross mountains and the valleys deep

Where I would take these weary feet

If I could choose the life I please

Then I would be a rover

But these things they're so hard for me

I cannot choose my own destiny

And all the things that I want to see

Are so unclean

Well I wish I could choose the life I please

But I am not a free man

Others rule my destiny

But my will's never broken

I know someday I will be

Everything that I dreamed I'd be

And when I live the life I please

Then I will be a freeman.

I know someday I will be

Everything that I dreamed I'd be

And when I live the life I please

Then I will be a freeman.

And when I live the life I please

Then I will be a freeman.
