Ralph McTell
Boothferry Bridge
[Verse 1]
Travelling tired and I'm dusty
Winds blowing high and it's gusty
Over Boothferry Bridge, Boothferry Bridge
My gateway to home again
My gateway to home again
[Verse 2]
I've been away such a long time
In old towns that were not mine
But Boothferry Bridge, Boothferry Bridge
It feels so fine to see you
It feels so fine to see you
[Bridge]
I'll never cross you and leave again
I'll never ever believe again
That there's better things waiting somewhere
That there's better things coming if I go there
[Verse 3]
You rattle and shake to greet me
Your rusty iron is beneath me
Boothferry Bridge, Boothferry Bridge
It's so nice to say hello
It's so nice to say hello
[Bridge]
I'll never cross you and leave again
I'll never ever believe again
That there's better things waiting somewhere
That there's better things coming if I go there
[Verse 1]
So, I'm, travelling tired and I'm dusty
Winds blowing high and it's gusty
Over Boothferry Bridge, Boothferry Bridge
My gateway to home again
My gateway to home again
[Outro]
Doo-doo, doo-doo-doo, doo, doo
Doo-doo, doo-doo-doo, doo, doo
