Down by the Riverside Burning Spear

[Refrain]
Don't break this heart, don't break this heart
Don't break this heart, don't break this heart

[Chorus]
Down by the riverside
Down by the riverside
Oh, I love a girl; All I know, I love a girl
I love her so; I really-really want her to know

[Verse 1]
She could be from Africa
She could be from America
She could be from Jamaica

[Chorus]
All I know, I love a girl
Oh, I love a girl
I love a girl; I really love her so

[Refrain]
Don't break this heart that love you
Don't break this heart that love you
And neither tear it apart

[Verse 2]
I love you, oh yes, it's true, dear
I will hold you tight tonight
Have something real nice to say
Have something real nice to say
We will hold hands in hands
We will sing, I think, happy songs
We will be, I think, side by side
