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