Rollin' down Black RIver
Rollin' down Black Riverside
I'm rollin' down
Looking, I'm looking
I'm looking near
I know where my sweet love will appear
Sweet as hawthorn bloom
Sweet as hawthorn bloom in spring
Sweet and wild
Waving, I'm waving
The joy she brings
Waving like a mountain fern in the wind
Waving like a mountain fern in the wind
She's got shiny eyes
She's got shiny eyes
Unrelenting
They lift me up
They lay lay down
Again and again and again and again
Upon a blue rag pony
Upon a blue rag pony coming down
Through silver trees
She's racing and racing
Like blood through my veins
Heaven when my sweet girl calls my name
Upon a blue rag pony
Rollin' down Black River
Looking, I'm looking
I'm looking near
I know where my sweet love will appear
I know where my sweet love will appear
I know where my sweet love will appear
