There's a house across the river
but alas, I cannot swim

And a garden of such beauty
that the flowers seem to grin

There's a house across the river
but alas, I cannot swim

I'll live my life regretting
that I never jumped in

There's a boy across the river
with short black curly hair
he wants to be my lover
and I want to be his peer

There's a boy across the river
but alas, I cannot swim

And I never will get to
put my arms round him

There's a life across the river
that was meant for me
Instead I live my life
in constant misery

There's live across the river
but I do not see
Why I should please those
who will never be pleased

There is gold across the river
but I don't want none x2

Gold is fleeting
gold is fickle
gold is fun x2

There is gold across the river
but i don't want none
I would rather be dry
than held up by a golden gun

Saying work more
earn more
live more
have more fun x3
