London River |
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 |
I tell no lie, upon my honor |
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 1930's |
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 the stewards they’ll blow you over |
Lipstick and makeup and all that muck |
You 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 honor |
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 |
