Текст песне : Hank Snow. Golden River.

I hate to see night shadows fall
I hate to see a moon above
For it brings me dreams of days gone by

When my darling, Lola Lee
Strolled along the shore with me
And we watched the golden river glide on by

Golden River, golden river you took my love from me
On your waves of golden hue you carried her with you
And you broke my heart a million, million ways

Now I sit and wonder why
I feel so blue and want to cry
While I watch the moon climb slowly in the sky

It was on a night like this
When she gave me her last kiss
Climbed in her birch canoe and said goodbye

Golden River, golden river you took my love from me
On your waves of golden hue you carried her with you
And you broke my heart a million, million ways
