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 side of town There was water all around And I couldn't cross over Now bird he can fly Froggy jump high Fishes never die But 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 I can't cross over Why-o, why-o, why-o I can't cross over A sailor come by And he give me the eye So I started to cry Cause I couldn't cross over Then he stole a kiss Somehow I couldn't resist Just think what I'd a missed 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 (Come down) Come down I can't cross over Why-o, why-o, why-o I can't cross over Now me mommy got mad But I'm feeling awful glad For I met a charming man Cause I couldn't cross over I had a curiosity Now I got a family Dangle babies on my knee 'Cause I couldn't cross over Why-o, why-o, why-o I can't cross over So if you have a daughter Keep her away from water She'll do things she hadn't ought to If she 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, I can't cross the water Why-o, why-o, why-o I can't cross over
