London River, oh the London River |
|
All the love I have I'll give her |
|
London River, oh the London River |
|
That's the river for me |
|
First time that I set my eyes upon her |
|
Tell no lie, upon my honour |
|
Sights and sounds that made my heart a-shiver |
|
Then I saw her on the London River-oh |
|
London River, oh the London River |
|
All the love I have I'll give her |
|
London River, oh the London River |
|
That's the river for me |
|
Signed to my master in the 1930s |
|
The hours were long and the work was dirty |
|
Out in the indies where the Rum is brewed |
|
Had me a drop and got me kidneys too |
|
London River, oh the London River |
|
All the love I have I'll give her |
|
London River, oh the London River |
|
That's the river for me |
|
Signed for a while on the old rasover |
|
Some of them stewards they'll blow you over |
|
Lipstick and Makeup, and all that muck, |
|
Walk like a woman and they call you duck |
|
London River, oh the London River |
|
All the love I have I'll give her |
|
London River, oh the London River |
|
That's the river for me |
|
First time that I set my eyes upon her |
|
Tell no lie, upon my honour |
|
Sights and sounds that made my heart a-shiver |
|
Then I saw her on the London River-oh |
|
London River, oh the London River |
|
All the love I have I'll give her |
|
London River, oh the London River |
|
That's the river for me |
