Thread Name: Lyr Req: Sydney Harbour Ferry Boat
Subject: Lyr Req: Sydney Harbour Ferry Boat Song
I have been looking - obviously not in the right places, for the lyrics to this song. I think the recording I have is off an Irish Rovers album, which I haven't been able to get my paws on either.
Anyone with lyrics/chords? I am missing lines from at least 2 verses.
Chorus is:
We've got a pi-eyed aborigine
Playin' on his digeree
Do you hear the captain whistling the blues?
A banjo pickin' bosun
And a crew that hates the ocean
On the Sydney Harbour Ferry Boat
Loaded up with booze.

Help, please and thank you.
