Another Summer, looks like I'm still here
Cavitating going nowhere
Days become months become years
Maybe it's just my destiny
Maybe it's just my fate
Maybe I still have some time left
Maybe it's much too late
And
I'm on Assawoman Bay
Working on a boat
They call her the Party Barge
Playing music for the tourist folk
Strummin' my guitar
You know we take 'em out
We bring 'em back
A couple of drinks and a couple of snacks
We never really go too far
On the Party Barge (the Party Barge)
Last
week we had us a wedding
They wanted to be married at sea
But I don't think it's going to last
The way the bride was winking at me
She said she liked my singing
She said she liked my songs
She said she liked my shorts
Once ashore I didn't stick around long
The Captain seems to like me
Maybe 'cause I'm a Captain too
Sometimes when things get
Rough out there
He asks what I would do
It's not that he's not confident
It's not that he's unsure
It's not that he would even
Change his mind
He just likes to be reassured
And
I'm on Assawoman Bay
Working on a boat
They call her the Party Barge
Playing music for the tourist folk
Strummin' my guitar
You know we take 'em out
We bring 'em back
A couple of dreams
And a couple of snacks
We never really go too far
On the Party Barge (the Party Barge)

I guess it's a great job for a guy like me
With my love of music
And my love of the sea
Still I scan the horizon where
The stars fill the sky
Finding more questions than answers,
Wondering why
Tomorrow will be the same
Different people different day
Different waves all goin' somewhere
Different wind; different rays
Singing songs about the ocean
Singing songs about the sea
Creating an illusion (but still)
Wondering just what's gonna
Happen to me
And
I'm on Assawoman Bay
Working on a boat
They call her the Party Barge
Playing music for the tourist folk
Strummin' my guitar
You know we take 'em out
We bring 'em back
A couple of dreams
And a couple of snacks
We never really go too far
On the Party Barge (the Party Barge)
You
know we take 'em out
We bring 'em back
A couple of drinks and a couple of snacks
Some people find all their dreams
On the Party Barge (the Party Barge)
Me
I'm just doing time
On the Party Barge (the Party Barge)
We never really go to far
On the Party Barge (the Party Barge)
