The Boat Man

Music: Russian Folksong
English lyrics: M Mallows

Ei, Uch-Njem
Ei, Uch-Njem
Toiling ever
On we go

On the Volga's flowing stream
There's no time to idly dream
Work is before us
Then join in the chorus
Song and labor
As on we go

Ei
Song and labor
As on we go

Ei, Uch-Njem
Ei, Uch-Njem
Toiling ever
On we go

On the Volga's flowing stream
There's no time to idly dream
Ei, dada ei da
Ei, daha ei da
There's no time to idly dream

Ei, Ei
Ei
There's no time to idly dream

Ei, Uch-Njem
Ei, Uch-Njem
Toiling ever
On we go
Ei, Uch-Njem
Ei, Uch-Njem
