That's the river for me
London River, oh, the London River
Lipstick and makeup and all that muck
All the love, I have I'll give her
Signed to my master in the 1930's
The hours were long and the work was dirty
London River, oh, the London River
Some of them the stewards they'll blow you over
Tell no lie, upon my honor
London River, oh, the London River
All the love, I have I'll give her
London River, oh, the London River
First time that I set my eyes upon her
London River, oh, the London River
All the love, I have I'll give her
You walk like a woman and they call you duck
Signed for a while on the old rasover
Then I saw her on the London River, oh
Had me a drop and got me kidneys too
London River, oh, the London River
Sights and sounds that made my heart a shiver
London River, oh, the London River
That's the river for me
London River, oh, the London River
I tell no lie, upon my honor
Sights and sounds that made my heart a shiver
All the love, I have I'll give her
London River, oh, the London River
Out in the Indies where the rum is brewed
First time that I set my eyes upon her
Then I saw her on the London River, oh
That's the river for me
That's the river for me
