VERSE 01: While strolling thro' life with its joys and its strifes you are looking for places to go/ You start on a chase to find some place to spend with your sweetheart Flo/ You've been to the picture shows out auto riding you've strolled thro' the dark old park/ But take it from me and so happy you'll be on a steamboat after dark/ Just CHORUS: Take a ride on the steamboat hear the music and say/ That's you're happy when you're sailing on the bay/ And coming home in the evening/ You'll feel light as a lark/ You can hug and kiss your dear little girl on a steamboat after dark. VERSE 02: Now when you start out in your mind there's a doubt that her love for you is not sincere/ You'll take my advice not ask her twice but wander down to the pier/ And while the ship's swaying sweet love things you're saying you dance while the band plays on/ For that's the best place to be try it and see on a steamboat after dark/ Just | |
