[Chorus]She just caught the Jamestown FerryIt's not a hot day in JanuaryLike she said it'd beIf she ever left meA case of gone was all she carriedAs she got on the Jamestown FerryAnd she said that gone was all she'd ever be[Verse 1]I didn't think that she'd leave meAfter sayin' how much she needs meBut the fact still remainsI'm sittin' here all aloneMissin' the lovin' of my babyLord, it's about to drive me crazyShe was the sweetest piece of heaven I've ever known[Chorus]She just caught the Jamestown FerryIt's not a hot day in JanuaryLike she said it'd beIf she ever left meA case of gone was all she carriedAs she got on the Jamestown FerryAnd she said that gone was all she'd ever be[Verse 2]As I walk through that valleyOf honky tonks and barsI remember how she'd hold meAnd comfort me with talkShe didn't cuss with every breathShe had a soothing southern drawlMade me feel like a man through it all[Outro]She just caught the Jamestown FerryIt's not a hot day in JanuaryLike she said it'd beIf she ever left me
