text: All alone as I walked by the banks of the river
  Watching the moonbeams as evening drew nigh
  All alone as I rambled I spied a fare damsel
  Weepin and wailin with many a sigh
  Weepin for one who is now lyin lonely
  Mournin for one who no mortal can save
  As the foaming dark waters flowed sadly about him
  Onward they speed over young Jimmys grave
  Oh Jimmy why cant you but tarry here with me
  Not leave me alone distracted in pain
  But since death is the dagger that cut us asunder
  Wide is the gulf, love, between you and I
  All alone as I rambled I spied a fare damsel
  Weepin and wailin with many a sigh
