I took my love down to Summerstown On the banks of the seaway where the big ships go by On the banks of the St. Lawrence river we lie On the banks of that river so wide And when we hear the winter turn And the sound of the blackbirds' cry I'll take my love down to Summerstown On the banks of the seaway where the big ships go by On the banks of the St. Lawrence river we lie On the banks of that river so wide And when we see the springtime turn To a cloud in the summer sky I'll take my love down to Summerstown On the banks of the seaway where the big ships go by On the banks of the St. Lawrence river we lie On the banks of that river so wide And when we feel the summer turn On the wind that the leaves will fly I'll take my love down to Summerstown On the banks of the seaway where the big ships go by On the banks of the St. Lawrence river we lie On the banks of that river so wide And when we hear the autumn turn And the northern wind's cold cry I'll take my love down to Summerstown On the banks of the seaway where the big ships go by On the banks of the St. Lawrence river we lie On the banks of that river so wide
