lyrics

Way back when where the music flowed, Big Wide River Of Love
Farmer’s fields and the old scare crow, Big Wide River Of Love
Oh, on that wide river, river of love so wide, wide river, big wide river of love

Paddle back in a long canoe, Big Wide River Of Love,
Sing and dance and play for you, Big Wide River Of Love
Oh, on that wide river, river of love so wide, wide river, big wide river of love

I take one look at the riverside, Big Wide River Of Love
It’s so far it hurts my eyes, Big Wide River Of Love
Oh, on that wide river, river of love so wide, wide river, big wide river of love

The canoe tips and we all fall in, Big Wide River Of Love
You drink it down, that powerful gin, Big Wide River Of Love
Oh, on that wide river, river of love so wide, wide river, big wide river of love

Now the river of love get it in your soul, Big Wide River Of Love
Big Wide River Of Love
Oh, on that wide river, river of love so wide, wide river, big wide river of love

Well you ride it slow and you ride it fast, Big Wide River Of Love
You ride it now back to the past, Big Wide River Of Love
Oh, on that wide river, river of love so wide, wide river, big wide river of love
