Walkin' By the River Lyrics

Walkin' By the River - Ella Fitzgerald/D.R

Written by:Robert Sour/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 river

'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
