The River of No Return

There is a river called the river of no return

Sometimes it's peaceful and sometimes wild and free

Love is a traveler on the river of no return

Swept on forever to be lost in the stormy sea

Wail-a-ree

I can hear the river call

No return no return

Where the roarin' waters fall wail-a-ree

I can hear my lover call Come to me

No return no return

I lost my love on the river and forever my heart will yearn

Gone gone forever down the river of no return

Wail-a-ree

Wail-a-ree

Wail-a-ree

She'll never return to me

No return no return no return
