I sit here alone on the banks of the river
The lonesome wind blows and the water rolls high
I can hear a voice calling out there in the darkness
But I sit here alone, too lonesome to cry
Oh, the water rolls high on the river at midnight
I sit on the shore, to grieve and to cry
The woman I love, she left me this morning
With no one to love or kiss me goodnight
ย
We met there one night on the banks of the river
Sat there holding hands and making our vows
That we'd never part and be happy together
But a new love she's found, she's gone from me now
Oh, the water rolls high on the river at midnight
I sit on the shore, to grieve and to cry
The woman I love, she left me this morning
With no one to love or kiss me goodnight
