[Verse 1]
Oh, the waters flow
Over rock and stone
O'er the waters blow
Windy wind so cold

[Refrain]
Oh, the rivers flow so old
Oh, the rivers flow so old

[Verse 2]
O'er the rivers fly
Stately kingfishers
Through the waters swim
Stickleback fishes

[Refrain]
Oh, the rivers flow so old
Oh, the rivers flow so old

[Verse 3]
Oh, the waters flow
Over rock and stone
Through the waters swim
Stickleback fishes
[Outro]
Ooh, the rivers flow so old
Through the rivers swim so old
Ooh, the rivers flow so old
Ooh
