[Verse 1]
Now, oh, those whistling bells
I know what they spell
Mighty river

[Verse 2]
Oh, if I miss that boat
I know I can float
Mighty river

[Bridge]
Oh baby, miles upon miles, I paddle my own canoe
I'll be in heaven when the journey's over

[Verse 3]
Oh, the one I adore
Is watching the shore
Of mighty river
