Ferry Boat Serenade Lyrics

I have never been aboard a steamer
I am just content to be a dreamer
Even if I could afford a steamer
I will take the ferry boat every timeI love to ride the ferry
Where music is so merry
There's a man who plays the concertina
On the moonlit upper deck arenaWhile boys and girls are dancing
While sweethearts are romancing
Life is like a Mardi-Gras
Funiculi, funiculaHappy, we drink together
Happy, we sing together
Happy, with the ferry boat serenadeI am happy, very, very happy
When we're on the ferry
The music is so merry
There's a man who plays the concertina
On the moonlit upper deck arena, arenaI love to ride the ferry
Where music is so merry
There's a man who always plays the concertina, oh my

On the moonlit upper deck arena, by and byWhile the boys and girls are dancing, oh dancing
While, while the sweethearts are romancing
Life is like a Mardi-Gras
Funiculi, funiculaHappy, we cling together
Happy, we sing together
Happy with the merry boat serenadeI love to ride the ferry
Sailing, sailing where, where the music is so merry
There's a man who just plays the concertina
On the moonlit upper deck arenaAll the while the boys and girls are dancing
Look around and you see sweethearts romancing
Life is like a Mardi-Gras
Funiculi, funiculaHappy, we cling together
Happy, we sing together
Happy, with the ferry boat serenade
