Jimmy Buffett - Steamer lyrics

Steamer

By: John Scott Sherrill

1981

For The Band

I remember that steamer

Time you set sail

The crowd was steamin'

Streamin' and leanin' on the rail

Then the big whistle blew

And I lost my place

Next thing I knew

I could not find your face

I can see myself dreamin'

The time you came home

Your face was beamin'

Seemin' to stand out alone

Dinner bell chimed

And I found my seat

And your eyes met mine

Your smile was so sweet

I remember that river

First time we made love

Oh I still kinda shiver a little

At what I'm thinkin' of

How your dress it just floated

All down around your knees

And I held my breath, my God my girl

'Cause I could not believe

(instrumental)

Most of all it's that steamer

Time you set sail

Ah the crowd's always steamin'

Streamin' and leanin' on the rail

Then the big whistle blows

And I always lose my place

Next thing I know

I cannot find your face
