Can´t Cross over |
| The river come down |
| The river come down |
| River come down |
| I can’t cross over |
| Why-o, why-o, why-o |
| I can’t cross over |
| I wanted to go down |
| To the other sideof town |
| There was water all around |
| And I couldn’t cross over |
| Why-o, why-o, why-o |
| I can’t cross over |
| Well a gal she come by And I give she the eye |
| So she started to sigh |
| And I couldn’t cross over |
| Why-o, why-o, why-o |
| I can’t cross over |
| The river come down |
| The river come down |
| River come down |
| And I couldn’t cross over |
| Why-o, why-o, why-o |
| I can’t cross over |
| Now bird he can fly |
| Foggy jump high |
| Fishes never die |
| And I couldn’t cross over |
| Why-o, why-o, why-o |
| I can’t cross over |
| A well I stole me a kiss |
| I couldn’t resist |
| Just think what I’d a miss |
| If I could have crossed over |
| Why-o, why-o, why-o |
| I can’t cross over |
| The river come down |
| The river come down |
| River come down |
| And I couldn’t cross over |
| Why-o, why-o, why-o |
| I can’t cross over |
| I had a curiosity |
| Now I got a family |
| Bouncing baby on my knee |
| ‘Cause I couldn’t cross over |
| Why-o, why-o, why-o |
| I can’t cross over |
| So when you see your neighbor daughter |
| Better run for the water |
| You’ll do things you hadn’t ought to If you can’t cross over |
| Why-o, why-o, why-o |
| I can’t cross over |
| The river come down |
| The river come down |
| River come down |
| And I couldn’t cross over |
| Why-o, why-o, why-o |
| I can’t cross over |
