Down by the riverside.
Down by the riverside,
Oh I love a girl. I love her so,
I really, really want her to know.
She could be from Africa
She could be from America
She could be from Jamaica
All I know I love a girl.
Oh I love a girl. I love her so,
I really, really want her to know.
/: Don't break this heart that love you
Don't break this heart that love you
And neither tear it apart
I love you, oh yes, it's true, dear
I will hold you tight tonight
Have something real nice to say,
Have something real nice to say,
We will hold hands in hands
We will sing, I think, happy songs.
We will be, I think, side by side
Down by the riverside
The beautiful riverside :/
