Glory, I'm sailing on the Robert E. Lee*
Oh! Boy, there's going to be a big jubilee
Hear those paddles going around
Oh! What music, while I'm homeward bound
Down on that levy, all my troubles will end
I'll be in heaven when we're making that bend
Hurry, Hurry, I'm shouting with glee
Sailing on the Robert E. Lee
