Dark Brown Is The River

Dark brown is the river
Golden is the sand
It flows along forever
With trees on either hand
Green leaves a-floating
Castles of the foam
Boats of mine a-boating
Oh, where will all come home?
On goes the river
And out past the mill
Away down the valley
Away down the hill
On goes the river
On goes the stream
Down through the waterfall
And down into my dream
Away down the river
A hundred miles or more
Other little children
Shall bring my boats ashore
Shall bring my boats ashore
