Oh Mourner let's go down To the river, to the river To the river let's go down Feelin' happy, feelin' sad Let's go down, let's go down To the river, to the river Oh Mourner let's go down One morning I was a' walkin' down Walkin' down, walkin' down Saw a berry a' hangin' down Pick the berry, pick the berry Sweet as the honey in the comb Mary, girl, you know my name Show me the spring that never dry Moon went into the poplar tree You'll see the stars a' fallin' down
Wonder where my father gone Won't be long, won't be long 'Till the stars a' fallin' down Stars a' fallin', stars a' fallin' See the stars a' fallin' down Mary, girl, you know my name Show me the spring that never dry Moon went into the poplar tree You'll see the stars a' fallin' down Mary, girl, you know my heart Show me the spring that never dry Moon went into the poplar tree You'll see the stars a' fallin' down
