(Run softly Blue River my darlin´s asleep run softly Blue River run cool and deep)
Run softly Blue River my darlin´s asleep run softly Blue River run cool and deep
Oh I thrill to her kisses and she thrills to mine

Run softly while she sleeps and dreams for a time
Cause she dreams of tomorrow when she´ll be my wife
And I pray that as peaceful as you is our life
And if your murmuring soothes me till I´m sleeping too
Run softly Blue River we´ll both dream with you
(Run softly Blue River my darlin´s asleep run softly Blue River run cool and deep)
Oh I thrill to her kisses
(Run softly Blue River my darlin´s asleep run softly Blue River run cool and deep)
(Run softly Blue River my darlin´s asleep run softly Blue River run cool and deep)
