Align:

Well I’m Gonna pick up some of these empties Lord.

As soon as I find where they lay.

Tied off of them jolly and leaving lines.

On a long hot summer day yea.

Chorus:

For every day I workin’ on the Illinois River.

Get a half a day off with pay.

Oh Tow boat pickin’ up barges.

On a long hot summer day.

Well I got me a gal in Pecan.

She's a good ole' gal okay.

Oh she's sitting there waitin’ by a window fan.

On a long hot summer day.

Chorus:

For every day I workin’ on the Illinois River.

Get a half a day off with pay.

Oh Tow boat pickin’ up barges.

On a long hot summer day.

Well Last night we had pork for supper.

And Tomorrow it'll be chicken consommÈ.

And a fruit jar full a iced tea.

On a long hot summer day. yea

Chorus:

For every day I workin’ on the Illinois River.

Get a half a day off with pay.

Oh Tow boat pickin’ up barges.

On a long hot summer day.

Well we dropped a man off in Beardstown.

When we got off yesterday.

Gonna get off down in Alton.

On a long hot summer day.

Chorus:

For every day I workin’ on the Illinois River.

Get a half a day off with pay.

Oh Tow boat pickin’ up barges.

On a long hot summer day.

For every day I workin’ on the Illinois River.

Get a half a day off with pay.

Oh Tow boat pickin’ up barges.

On a long hot summer day.

Chorus:

For every day I workin’ on the Illinois River.

Get a half a day off with pay.

Oh Tow boat pickin’ up barges.

On a long hot summer day.
