1
I met my girl at Woolwich Pier
2
Beneath the big cranes standing
3
And oh, the love I felt for her
4
It passed all understanding
5
Took her sailing on the river
6
Flow sweet river, flow
7
London town was mine to give her
8
Sweet Thames flow softly
9
Made the Thames into a crown
10
Flow sweet river, flow
11
Made a brooch of Silver town
12
Sweet Thames flow softly
13
At London Yard I held her hand
14
At Blackwall Point I faced her
15
At the Isle of Dogs I kissed her mouth
16
And tenderly embraced her
17
Heard the bells of Greenwich ringing, Flow . . .
18
All the time I had was singing, Sweet Thames . . .
19
Lighthouse Reach I gave her there, Flow . . .
20
As a ribbon for her hair, Sweet Thames . . .
21
From Putney Bridge to Nine Elms Reach
22
We cheek to cheek were dancing
23
Her necklace made of London Bridge
24
Her beauty was enhancing
25
Kissed her once again at Wapping, Flow . . .
26
After that there was no stopping, Sweet Thames . . .
27
Gave her Hampton Court to twist, Flow . . .
28
Into a bracelet for her wrist, Sweet Thames . . .
29
But now alas the tide has changed
30
My love she has gone from me
31
And winter’s frost has touched my heart
32
And put a blight upon me
33
Creeping fog is on the river, Flow . . .
34
Sun and moon and stars gone with her, Sweet Thames . . .
35
Swift the Thames runs to the sea, Flow . . .
36
Bearing ships and part of me, Sweet Thames . . .
