Jamestown Ferry

She just caught the Jamestown Ferry it's not a hot day in January
Like she said it'd be if she ever left me
A case of gone was all she carried as she got on the Jamestown Ferry
And she said that gone was all she'd ever be

I didn't think that she'd leave me after seeing how much she needs me
But the fact still remains I'm sittin' here all alone
Missin' lovin' of my lady Lord it's bout to drive me crazy
She was the sweetest piece of heaven I've ever known
But he just caught the Jamestown Ferry...
[ guitar ]
As I walk through my kingdom of honky tonks and bars
And I remember every moment it can comfort me with talk
She didn't cuss with every breath she had a soothing Southern drawl
And her hair onto the pockets on her jeans
But he just caught the Jamestown Ferry...
