Billy Mccoy

Where is my Billy my Billy McCoy Where is the boy of my dreams Singing this song as the boat rolls along Heading for ole New Orleans uhuh Heading for ole New Orleans I once had a lover named Billy McCoy He lived by the river's big bend One warm summer day Billy wandered away He's gone but our love didn't end They say he went down where the riverboats dock With nary a cent in his jeans A barefooted lad who could sing round the clock And wanted to see New Orleans Where is my Billy my Billy McCoy Where is the boy of my dreams Singing this song as the boat rolls along Heading for ole New Orleans uhuh Heading for ole New Orleans He took his guitar and he sang very well A riverboat crew heard him there They took him aboard on the Big Dixie Bell To sing for his dinner and fare I pray every night that he misses me so And after he sees New Orleans He'll sing his way home for he loves me I know My barefooted boy in blue jeans Where is my Billy my Billy McCoy Where is the boy of my dreams Singing this song as the boat rolls along Heading for ole New Orleans uhuh Heading for ole New Orleans
