Yes!!! This was a song i discovered a few back on a Squire FM 2 record set. Saw The Pious Bird Of Good Omen when i was in Jr high ('69) but never heard it. Got into FM just a year later. The Vintage Years 2 record set has lots of great tunes, some i already had. The Big Boat is one that always knocks me out.
The big boat is at the landing And my baby is waitin' to step on board The big boat is at the landing And my baby is waitin' to step on board Yes, I know the little girl is leavin' Oh but the reason why I just don't know I was standin' at the landing Crying sweet thing please don't go I was standin' at the landing Crying baby doll please don't go Well, because you know I love you Yes, I love you, woman I love you with all my heart and soul You know I got to find my baby If it takes a lifetime to track her down I got to find my baby If it take a lifetime to track her down I'm gonna stay on the trail of my little sweet thing Keep her just like an old bloodhound
Why was this song not included on the complete blue horizon box set? seeing as pious bird compilation album was in the box, this track was taken out. ..glad I still have my early cd edition of the album that does include it.
