Hey
Look at the way she´s wavin´ her sail
It´s a wondrous sight to see
People hurry on down from every town
Have a look at the Robert E. Lee
Proud and strong and made to be free
Can´t go wrong on the Robert E. Lee
Got the sun in my eyes
And the wind in my face
And it´s good just to be alive
Gonna set out tonight for New Orleans
I won´t sleep till I arrive
And if I´m lucky,
I´ll find a young lady under the stars
And we´ll dance the night away
Somebody wake me and say it´s a dream
Leadin´ me far from my home
And haven´t you noticed
Despite what it seems
You can´t deny it´s you and I alone
Maybe spend my life just workin´ the land
Maybe livin´ from day to day
But I´m free tonight in New Orleans
If I like it, I just might stay
Proud and strong and made to be free
Can´t go wrong on the Robert E. Lee
Got the sun in my eyes
And the wind in my face
And it´s good just to be alive
Gonna set out tonight for New Orleans
I won´t sleep till I arrive
Look at the way she´s wavin´ her sail
It´s a wondrous sight to see
People hurry on down from every town
Have a look at the Robert E. Lee
Proud and strong and made to be free
Can´t go wrong on the Robert E. Lee
Got the sun in my eyes
And the wind in my face
And it´s good just to be alive
Gonna set out tonight for New Orleans
I won´t sleep till I arrive
And if I´m lucky,
I´ll find a young lady under the stars
And we´ll dance the night away
Somebody wake me and say it´s a dream
Leadin´ me far from my home
And haven´t you noticed
Despite what it seems
You can´t deny it´s you and I alone
Maybe spend my life just workin´ the land
Maybe livin´ from day to day
But I´m free tonight in New Orleans
If I like it, I just might stay
Proud and strong and made to be free
Can´t go wrong on the Robert E. Lee
Got the sun in my eyes
And the wind in my face
And it´s good just to be alive
Gonna set out tonight for New Orleans
I won´t sleep till I arrive
