Cruising down the river on a Sunday afternoon
With one you love the sun above waiting for the moon
An old accordion playing a sentimental tune
Cruising down the river on a Sunday afternoon

The birds above all sing of love a gentle sweet refrain
The winds around all make a sound like softly falling rain
Just two of us together we'll plan our honeymoon
Cruising down the river on a Sunday afternoon

Cruising down the river with a sentimental tune
Cruising down the river on a Sunday afternoon

The birds above all sing of love...
