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      - notes:   Vocals: jimmy buffett, deborah mccoll   Acoustic lead guitar: barry chance
