Little River Runs

 

Little River runs to the sea, flowing free, what a sight to see
Little River runs through the good brown earth
Flowing, flowing to the sea
Along Little River there's a bank of sand, where water meets land
What a sight to see
A bank of sand where Little River runs through the good brown earth
Flowing, flowing to the sea
By the bank of sand grow red gum trees, blowing in the breeze
What a sight to see
Red gum trees by the bank of sand where
Little River runs through the good brown earth
Flowing, flowing to the sea
In the red gum tree there's a little nest for birds to rest
What a sight to see
The little nest in the red gum tree by the bank of sand
Where Little River runs through the good brown earth
Flowing, flowing to the sea
In the little nest is a lorikeet, who sings so sweet
What a sight to see
Lorikeet sings in the little nest in the red gum tree
By the bank of sand where Little River runs through the good brown earth
Flowing, flowing to the sea

A lorikeet's song takes to the sky
Yes, a song can fly
What a sight to see
A song in the sky that a lorikeet sings in the little nest in the red gum tree
By the bank of sand where Little River runs through the good brown earth
Flowing, flowing to the sea
And from that sky raindrops flow to the valley below
What a sight to see
Raindrops flow from a song in the sky that a lorikeet sings
In the little nest in the red gum tree by the bank of sand
Where Little River runs through the good brown earth
Flowing, flowing to the sea
In the valley below, Little River runs, murmurs and hums
What a sight to see
Oh, and Little River runs where the raindrops flow
From a song in the sky that a lorikeet sings in the little nest
In the red gum tree by the bank of sand where Little River runs
Oh, Little River runs through the good brown earth
Flowing, flowing, flowing, flowing, flowing, flowing, flowing, flowing to the sea
