This is after the posted lyrics in the song:

There's a house across the river But alas I cannot swim and a garden full of beauty That the flowers seem to grin

There's a house across the river But alas I cannot swim I live my life regretting That I never jumped in

There's a boy across the river With short black curly hair He wants me to be his lover and I want to be his peer

There's a boy across the river But alas I cannot swim Now I will never get to put My arms around him

There's a life across the river That was meant for me Instead I live my life in constant misery

There's a life across the river But I do not see Why I should please those Who will never be pleased

There is gold across the river But I don't want none There is gold across the river But I don't want none

Gold is fleeting, gold is fickly Gold is fun Gold is fickle, gold is fleeting Gold is fun

There is gold across the river But I don't want none I would rather be tried Than held up by a golden gun

Saying work more, earn more Live more, have more fun Saying work more, earn more Live more, have more fun Saying work more, earn more Live more, have more fun
