The easy, fast & fun way to learn how to sing: 30DaySinger.com
All the girls and boys play around the black river No one expected a thing Till late one night that river jumped out Took the sherifs' only son The towns people searched long and they searched hard Only coming up with a boot Still the sherif sits on his porch every night Waiting for the boy to return River, the black river Takes your children away River, the black river Stay away from the water that takes you away 10 years have passed since the boy was lost All but one's forgotten the tail She goes into the woods by herself To find the lost boy River, the black river Takes your children away River, the black river Stay away from the water that takes you away Her eyes meet with the beast of the black river She pulls out her sword, stabs that beast before her The lost boy drops to his knees and looks up at her She holds him close until he dies in her arms River, the black river Takes your children away River, the black river Stay away from the water that takes you away Stay away from the water that takes you away
