All Aboard the Albert

well all aboard who come along

she said she liked my little songs

all the stories i would tell

and how she knew them very well

but now its time for us to all set sail

our houses lined up in a row

two up two down that's how they'd go

where she is i'll never know

we used to walk home in the snow

waving to the people that we know

well we were younger climbing trees

across the harbour to the sea

what a life there it would be

leave this town, just you and me

the summer came,

the birds sang with the leaves

so on nine ships we went along

and kept in mind those little songs

promised her i would return

with maps and treasures in return

for all those stories that we heard long ago

for all those stories that we heard long ago

well we bid farewell on our way

and i hope i see that girl again someday
