Down by the Riverside Lyrics

I met my little bright eyed doll, down by the riverside
Down by the riverside, down by the riverside
I met my little bright eyed doll, down by the riverside
Down by the riverside, down by the riverside

I asked her for a little kiss, down by the riverside
Down by the riverside, down by the riverside
I asked her for a little kiss, down by the riverside
Down by the riverside, down by the riverside

She said "have patience little man
I'm sure you'll understand
I hardly know your name"
I said if I can ever say
Maybe some sweet day
My name and yours will be the same

I wed my little bright eyed doll, down by the riverside
Down by the riverside, down by the riverside
I wed my little bright eyed doll, down by the riverside
Down by the riverside, down by the riverside

She said "have patience little man
I'm sure you'll understand
I hardly know your name"
I said if I can ever say
Maybe some sweet day
My name and yours will be the same

I wed my little bright eyed doll, down by the riverside
Down by the riverside, down by the riverside
I wed my little bright eyed doll, down by the riverside
Down by the riverside, down by the riverside
Down by the riverside, down by the riverside
