Midnight Steamer

Jerusalem

Compositor: Lynden Williams / Robert Cooke / William Hinde / Paul Dean / Ray Sparrow

In the dawn of the evening
The boat has come to transport you
Three hooded sirens are your crew
Your captain is a skeleton

Just come on, just come on
Come on in, the water's fine
Come on in, the water's fine
And the midnight steamer appears on time
And the midnight steamer appears on time

In the dawn of the evening
People make love to make death
Your coffin is on a cabin shelf
Your journey is very long

Just come on, just come on
Come on in, the water's fine
Come on in, the water's fine
And the midnight steamer appears on time
And the midnight steamer appears on time

In the dawn of the evening
A passage is reserved for you
The boat has come to transport you
You just can't linger on

Just come on, just come on
Come on in, the water's fine
Come on in, the water's fine
And the midnight steamer appears on time
And the midnight steamer appears on time
