(Ewan MacColl)
I met my girl at Woolwich Pier
Beneath
the big cranes standing
And oh, the love I felt for her
It passed all
understanding
Took her sailing on the river
Flow sweet river, flow
London
town was mine to give her
Sweet Thames flow softly
Made the Thames into a
crown
Flow sweet river, flow
Made a brooch of Silver town
Sweet Thames flow
softly
At London Yard I held her hand
At Blackwall Point I faced her
At the
Isle of Dogs I kissed her mouth
And tenderly embraced her
Heard the bells of
Greenwich ringing, Flow . . .
All the time I had was singing, Sweet Thames . .
.
Lighthouse Reach I gave her there, Flow . . .
As a ribbon for her hair, Sweet
Thames . . .
From Putney Bridge to Nine Elms Reach
We cheek to cheek were
dancing
Her necklace made of London Bridge
Her beauty was enhancing
Kissed her
once again at Wapping, Flow . . .
After that there was no stopping, Sweet Thames . .
.
Gave her Hampton Court to twist, Flow . . .
Into a bracelet for her wrist,
Sweet Thames . . .
But now alas the tide has changed
My love she has gone from
me
And winter's frost has touched my heart
And put a blight upon me
Creeping
fog is on the river, Flow . . .
Sun and moon and stars gone with her, Sweet Thames . .
.
Swift the Thames runs to the sea, Flow . . .
Bearing ships and part of me,
Sweet Thames . . .
