So long boy you can take my place, got my papers I've got my pay<br />
So pack my bags and I'll be on my way to yellow river<br />
Put my guns down the war is won<br />
Fill my glass high the time has come<br />
I'm going back to the place that I love yellow river<br />
<br />
Yellow river yellow river is in my mind and in my eyes<br />
Yellow river yellow river is in my blood it's the place I love<br />
Got no time for explanation got no time to lose<br />
Tomorrow night you'll find me<br />
Sleeping underneath the moon at yellow river<br />
<br />
Cannon fire lingers in my mind I'm so glad that I'm still alive<br />
And I've been gone for such a long time from yellow river<br />
I remember the nights were cool I can still see the water pool<br />
And I remember the girl that I knew from yellow river<br />
<br />
Yellow river yellow river is in my mind and in my eyes<br />
Yellow river yellow river is in my blood it's the place I love<br />
Got no time for explanation got no time to lose<br />
Tomorrow night you'll find me<br />
Sleeping underneath the moon at yellow river<br />
<br />
Yellow river yellow river is in my mind and in my eyes<br />
Yellow river yellow river is in my blood it's the place I love
