Weeping River

(álbum: We, The Tokens, Sing Folk - 1962)

Weeping river
Weeping river
Weep no more, no more

There is a place called Weeping River
In a sad and troubled land
And the story goes (story goes)
That the river flows (river flows)
Where once was burning sand

Weeping river
Weeping river
Where once was burning sand

To this place called Weeping River
Came those with tears to mourn
Though the earth was bare (earth was bare)
From their tears of prayer (tears of prayer)
A river soon was born

Weeping river
Weeping river
A river soon was born

There is a shrine called Weeping River
In a far and lonely land
Now a garden grows (garden grows)
And the river flows (river flows)
Where once was burning sand

Where once was burning sand
(Weeping River)
