Gerry & The Pacemakers - Ferry Cross The Mersey (Shindig! 1965)

[simplygr]

So beautifully sung and such beautiful lyrics - stop, slowdown and smell the flowers - it's God's world.

I remember when this song came out.  I heard it as a child on The Armed Forces Radio while living in Germany. Thanks for posting it.

Always loved this number. Gerry was and remains a warm, engaging performer and it's no wonder they kept up with The Beatles in Merseyside and across the pond in the first couple of years.

Loved them when I was younger ...still love them now...the music that the younger people listen to day ...can't hold a candle to the music of the 60,70...

We have a Mersey River where I live. No ferry, just two bridges! LOL Love this song.

Small spelling error.

It's Mersey not Mersy.

Sorry to be such a pedant.
