Golden river
I hate to see night shadows fall, I hate to see a moon above For it brings me dreamds of happy days gone by When my darling Lola Lee strolled along the shore with me And we watched the golden river glide on by Golden river, golden river, you took my love from me On your waves of golden hue, you carried her away with you And broke my heart a million, million ways Now I sit and wonder why I feel so blue and cry As I watch the moonclimb slowly in the sky It was on a night like this when she gave me her last kiss Climbed in her birch canoe and sailed away * Refrain
