Well, I was down at the landing, people
Lord, with my head hung down
ย
Lord, I was down at the landing with my head hung down
I could see everybody's baby, getting on board
Lord, but I couldn't see mine, yeah
Lord, I couldn't
ย
I said, "Lord, have mercy, where could my baby be?"
ย
I said, "Lord, have mercy, people, where could my baby be?"
ย
I see everybody's baby, baby, baby
Lord, but I can't see mine
ย
The big boat kept on rolling
Big boat kept on rolling, Lord
Lord, but it did
ย
Lord, the big boat, the big boat, people
Big boat kept on rolling, Lord
ย
I was standing there wondering, with my head hung down
ย
I believe I'll call to the cargo
Yes, yes, yes
I'm going to seize my baby down
Oh, call to the cargo, seize my baby down
ย
My baby, she might have got hung up, people
Lord, if she could make it down
