Song Lyrics:
Once there was a little man
They called him River Rat Billy
He liked the docks
And gulls in flocks
People thought him very silly
Once there was a little gal
They called her loopy Lily Lou
She lived on a boat
That couldn't float
People thought her silly, too
River Rat Bill met Loopy Lil
And they were never apart
They both liked ships
And morning dips
Even though it left them with a chill
Doodley doodle de doo...
Billy said they should sail away
Out to the deep blue sea
Lil agreed
So they decreed
On the sea, on the sea they would be
They gathered twigs and some twine
Tied old clothes into a sail
And when the wind
Blew round the bend
They left never to be seen again.
Some folks say the wind that blew
Took them to a land of gold
Others think
Their raft did sink
But no one really knows, I'm told
[Chorus]
