Run Softly, Blue River

Run softly blue river my darlin's asleep
Run softly blue river run cool and deep
Run softly blue river my darlin's asleep
Run softly blue river run cool and deep

Oh, I thrill to her kisses and she thrills to mine
Run softly while she sleeps and dreams for a time
'Cause she dreams of tomorrow when she'll be my wife
And I pray that as peaceful as you is our life

And if your murmuring soothes me till I'm sleeping too
Run softly blue river we'll both dream with you

Run softly blue river my darlin's asleep
Run softly blue river run cool and deep

Oh, I thrill to her kisses and she thrills to mine
Run softly while she sleeps and dreams for a time
'Cause she dreams of tomorrow when she'll be my wife
And I pray that as peaceful as you is our life

And if your murmuring soothes me till I'm sleeping too
Run softly blue river we'll both dream with you

Run softly blue river my darlin's asleep
Run softly blue river run cool and deep
Run softly blue river my darlin's asleep
Run softly blue river run cool and deep

Run softly blue river my darlin's asleep
Run softly blue river
