Walkin By The River Lyrics by Una Mae Carlisle

This Is The 1St Song Composed By An African-American Woman To Appear In The Billboard Charts. Intro Verse There's Dew Upon The Ground And Not A Soul In Sight. I'm Walkin' By The River 'Cause I'm Meeting Someone There To---Night! Verse I Hear A Distant Sound. I See A Far-Off Light. I'm Walkin' By The River 'Cause I'm Meeting Someone There To-Night! Bridge The Murmuring Waters Say, There's No Time To Delay, So Hurry On Your Way, My Friend! If You Don't Get There Soon, There May Not Be A Moon To Guide You To That Happy End! Verse My Heart Is Riding High. My Blues Have Taken Flight. I'm Walkin' By The River 'Cause I'm Meeting Someone There To-Night! (Solo Over 2 Verses) Verse Verse Bridge The Murmuring Waters Say, There's No Time To Delay, So Hurry On Your Way, My Friend! If You Don't Get There Soon, There May Not Be A Moon To Guide You To That Happy End! Verse My Heart Is Riding High. My Blues Have Taken Flight. I'm Walkin' By The River 'Cause I'm Meeting Someone There To-Night!
