So long boy you can take my place, got my papers I've got my pay

 So pack my bags, and I'll be on my way, to yellow river

Put my guns down the war is won,

fill my glass high the time has come

 I'm going back to the place that I love, yellow river

Yellow river, yellow river is in my mind and in my eyes

Yellow river, yellow river is in my blood it's the place I love

Got no time for explanation got no time to lose,

 tomorrow night you'll find me

 sleeping underneath the moon at yellow river

Cannon fire lingers in my mind, I'm so glad that I'm still alive

 And I've been gone for such a long time, from yellow river

I remember the nights were cool, I can still see the water pool

 And I remember the girl that I knew, from yellow river

Yellow river, yellow river is in my mind and in my eyes

Yellow river, yellow river is in my blood it's the place I love

Got no time for explanation got no time to lose,

 tomorrow night you'll find me

 sleeping underneath the moon at yellow river

Yellow river, yellow river is in my mind and in my eyes

Yellow river, yellow river is in my blood it's the place I love
