IA sit here alone on the banks of the river
The lonseome wind bDlows and the water runs hAigh
I can hear a voice caDll from out there in the Adarkness
But I sit here aElone too lonesome to crAy
OAh the water rolls high on the river at midnight
With no-one to lEove or kiss me goodnightA
WAe met there one night on the banks of the river
sat there holdin' hDands and makin' a vow A
That we never would pDart and be happy togetherA
But a new love sEhe's found - she's goneA with him now.
OAh the water rolls high on the river at midnight
With no-one to lEove or kiss me goodnightA
