From Espanola ta Manitoulina cross the channel I'm bound
I heard a story in Tobermory that my baby's in Owen Sound
I was close behind her but I couldn't find her so to Meaford I'm away-
Down to Collingwood that' s where I stood at the bottom of the Georgian Bay
Ferryman Ferryman ! Have you seen my Marianne?
In my search for her I've been- around the bay and back again
Around the bay and back again...
Lick-repeat
From Wasaga ta Penatanguishine north ta Parry Sound
There's 30,000's of lakes and Islands and where can she be found
From grit my baby never hit French river and Sudbury they say
She took a ferry in Tobermory across the Georgian Bay...
Chorus: then-Guitar lick.
From Espanola to Manitoulina cross the channel I'm bound
Another story in Tobermory said to try old Hepworth town
I was close behind her but I couldn't find her
So I guess I'll have to stay-Without my lovely on lonely island
In the middle of the Georgian Bay
Chorus:
Ferry Man-repeat 3 X and end....
