Lyrics:

Brown girl in the ring
Tra la la la la
There's a brown girl in the ring
Tra la la la la la
Brown girl in the ring
Tra la la la la
She looks like a sugar in a plum
Plum plum

Show me your motion
Tra la la la la
Come on show me your motion
Tra la la la la la
Show me your motion
Tra la la la la
She looks like a sugar in a plum
Plum plum

All had water run dry
Got no way to wash my clothes
All had water run dry
Got no way to wash my clothes

I remember one Saturday night
We had fried fish and Johnny-cakes
I remember one Saturday night
We had fried fish and Johnny-cakes

Beng-a-deng
Beng-a-deng

Brown girl in the ring
Tra la la la la
There's a brown girl in the ring
Tra la la la la la
Brown girl in the ring
Tra la la la la
She looks like a sugar in a plum
Plum plum

Show me your motion
Tra la la la la
Come on show me your motion
Tra la la la la la
Show me your motion
Tra la la la la
She looks like a sugar in a plum
Plum plum

All had water run dry
Got no way to wash my clothes
All had water run dry
Got no way to wash my clothes

I remember one Saturday night
We had fried fish and Johnny-cakes
I remember one Saturday night
We had fried fish and Johnny-cakes

Beng-a-deng
Beng-a-deng

Brown girl in the ring
Tra la la la la
See, brown girl in the ring
Tra la la la la la
Brown girl in the ring
Tra la la la la
She looks like a sugar in a plum
Plum plum

All had water run dry
Got no way to wash my clothes
All had water run dry
Got no way to wash my clothes

Brown girl in the ring
Tra la la la la
Look that brown girl in the ring
Tra la la la la la
Brown girl in the ring
Tra la la la la
She looks like a sugar in a plum
Plum plum

Lyrics:


He left on a boat
Just to follow a dream
He had to find.
You can't hold a man
When he follows a dream
That's on his mind.

I see a boat on the river,
It's sailing away
Down to the ocean,
Where to I can't say.

Boat on the river,
It's sailing away
Down to the ocean,
Where to I can't say.

I waited for him
Such a very long time,
Don't Know what for
'cause I should have known
When he left on the boat
We'll meet no more.

I see a boat on the river,
It's sailing away
Down to the ocean,
Where to I can't say.

Boat on the river,
It's sailing away
Down to the ocean,
Where to I can't say.

Boat on the river,
It's sailing away
Down to the ocean,
Where to I can't say.

Boat on the river.
You're bound for the sea,
If you should find him
Please greet him from me.

There were people who came
And said it's really a shame,
Why did he take off
To follow just a dream.
But I guess they were wrong,
In life you're sailing along
And things don't turn out
As simple as they seem.

Boat on the river,
It's sailing away
Down to the ocean,
Where to I can't say.

I see a boat on the river,
It's sailing away
Down to the ocean,
Where to I can't say.

I see a boat on the river.
You're bound for the sea,
If you should find him
Please greet him from me.

Boat on the river,
It's sailing away
Down to
