I met my girl at Woolwich Pier beneath

The big crane standing

And all the love I felt for her

It passed all understanding

Took her sailing on the river

Flow sweet river flow

London town was mine to give her

Sweet Thames flow softly

Made the Thames into a crown

Flow sweet river flow

Made a brooch of Silver town

Sweet Thames flow softly

At London Yard I held her hand

At Blackwell Point I faced her

At the Isle of Dogs

I kissed her mouth and tenderly embraced her

Heard the bells of Greenwich ringing

Flow sweet river flow

All the time my heart was singing

Sweet Thames flow softly

Limehouse Reach I gave her there

Flow sweet river flow

As a ribbon for her hair

Sweet Thames flow softly

From Putney Bridge to Nine Elms Reach

We cheek to cheek were dancing

A necklace made of London Bridge

Her beauty was enhancing

Kissed her once again at Wapping

Flow sweet river flow

After that there was no stopping

Sweet Thames flow softly

Gave her Hampton Court to twist

Flow sweet river flow

Into a bracelet for her wrist

Sweet Thames flow softly

But now alas the tide has changed

My love she has gone from me

And winter's frost has touched my heart

And put a blight upon me

Creeping fog is on the river

Flow sweet river flow

Sun and moon and stars gone with her

Sweet Thames flow softly

Swift the Thames runs to the sea

Flow sweet river flow

Bearing ships and part of me

Sweet Thames flow softly

Sweet Thames flow softly
