cherish the ladies – sweet thames flow softly lyrics
i met my girl at woolwich pier beneath the big crane
standing
and all the love i felt for her it p-ssed 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
