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
