Mmm… if listen you can hear river call… wail-a-ree...

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 roaring 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-re-e-ee
(Wail-a-ree)
You'll never return to me
(no return, no return)
