Pete Francis - Heavenly Boat lyrics

Unknown soldier rolling boulder Dusty eyes and ancient skies, unfolding Restless nomad waits for no man Sun beats down on the crown of his forehead Long black trail from the foothills Watch the clouds driftin over, sleepy mountains Take me out, on the heavenly boat that rides the river Take me out, on the heavenly boat that rides the river Pots and pans hang upside down in the kitchen Floating Just like copper planets Warm bread in a wild winter Moonlight filters through the curtains in a bedroom Beaded necklace all rolled up like a coiled snake That's still awake on the evening table Take me out, on the heavenly boat that rides the river Take me out, on the heavenly boat that rides the river Western stars like silver spurs Riding horses of the heavens, through the canyons Blinking eyes like windshield wipers Salty tears of mermaids mix into the ocean My moon sister, I guess I missed her She was dreaming in the drawing room of space Take me out, on the heavenly boat that rides the river Take me out, on the heavenly boat that rides the river Take me out, on the heavenly boat that rides the river Take me out, on the heavenly boat that rides the river Take me out, on the heavenly boat that rides the river Take me out, on the heavenly boat that rides the river
