'Cross the lake the water-bob
Way, way, way, a-ay, a-ay, a-ay
Draws the evenin' shadows under
Way, way, way, a-ay, a-ay, a-ay

I care not for you any more
Way, way, way, a-ay, a-ay, a-ay
Someone else is in my thoughts
Way, way, way, a-ay, a-ay, a-ay

You desire that I seek you still
Way, way, way, a-ay, a-ay, a-ay
Your young sister is why I come
Way, way, way, a-ay, a-ay, a-ay

Come and sit and we will swing
Way, way, way, a-ay, a-ay, a-ay
Why are you offended now
Way, way, way, a-ay, a-ay, a-ay

'Cross the lake the water-bob
Way, way, way, a-ay, a-ay, a-ay
Draws the evenin' shadows under
Way, way, way, a-ay, a-ay, a-ay, a-ay
