The steamer is sailing on the water.

The steamer goes on the water, ; Its smoky smoke rolls in the sky. ; I mourn this steamer, ; This is what my dear dove took away. ; ; The steamer goes down, ; Its smoky smoke rolls up. ; This little girl goes into her den, ; The steamer cries, cries into the steamer's nose. ; ; The little girl goes with her little brother, ; Through hills and valleys, through vineyards. ; After her the captain, ; On a shaggy-haired, short-tailed horse.
