Walkin' By The River (11-03-40) - Una Mae Carlisle

There’s dew upon the ground

And not a soul in sight

I’m walkin' by the river

'Cause I’m meeting someone there tonight

I hear a distant sound

I see a far-off light

I’m walkin' by the rive

'Cause I’m meeting someone there tonight

The murmuring waters say

There’s no time to delay

So hurry on your way, my friend

If you don’t get there soon

There may not be a moon

To guide you to that happy end

My heart is riding high

My blues have taken flight

I’m walkin' by the river

'Cause I’m meeting someone there tonight

My heart is riding high

My blues have taken flight

I’m walkin' by the river

'Cause I’m meeting someone there tonight
