作曲：Rory Gallagher

Were you were raised by the river

Down in the low low land

Where the air is dark and sinister

In the night there's no safe place to stand

In the reeds there are eyes that peek

Voices I can't understand

Flamingos flying endlessly

Into the silent sky

Daughter of the everglades

You never made it clear

Child of the river

If you wanted to be here

Daughter of the everglades

I never saw your tears

Well you looked like your mama

Before you walked you swam

Learned to make that snake tail stew

From your daddy

Crazy talking fisherman

In this place there is no law

The river makes all the rules

What they are I found out

When I came to look for you

Daughter of the everglades

Why did you bring me here

Daughter of the everglades

My love has turned to fear

Daughter of the everglades

Let me feel you near

Well you laughed in the city

But I knew after a year

That you'd cry in the city

I should not have brought you here

So far from the bayou

Down in the low low land

Don't know why you left me

But now I think I understand

Take me back to the river

Down in the smokey ground

When snakes crawl you don't cheat

By the river you live for now

In the swell of the river

Where the boat sails by some cloud

I should have gone there with you

But now they tell me you have drowned

Daughter of the everglades

I could feel you near

Daughter of the everglades

I know I'll find you here

Child of the river

I can't see for tears

Daughter of the everglades

I want to feel you near

Daughter of the everglades

I must find you here

Child of the river

I can't see my tears
