Artist : Russ Morgan Song : Cruising Down The River
CRUISING DOWN THE RIVER (On a Sunday
Afternoon) Blue Baron/Russ Morgan - words
and music by Eily Beadell and Nell Tollerton, two
middle-aged women who wrote the song to win a
British songwriting contest in 1945 - sung by
the crew of H.M.S. Amethyst as it made its
historic dash down the Yangtze River in
1949
Cruising down the river on a Sunday
afternoon With one you love, the sun above
waiting for the moon The old accordian 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 a
honeymoon Cruising down the river on a Sunday
afternoon
