The Boatman

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 spokenMy 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 boatmanIf I could choose the life I please

Then I would be a rower

And if the road was not for me

Then, I would choose anotherCross 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 rowerBut 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 uncleanWell, 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 brokenI 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 freemanI 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 freemanAnd when I live the life I please

Then, I will be a freeman
