Writers and painters have
shown it's beauty

Keep alive the rivers lure
With the sunsetin' golden

The daylight fades
And I could be happy spending my days

On the river that flows both ways
I could be happy spending my days on
The river that flows both ways

Ab 
Maybe it's the starlight

Reflected off good old Haverstraw bay
Maybe it's the fog that rolls

Off the catskill mountains

Strawberries and corn
