Lyrics:
Down by the river that flows by the coal yards Stand wooden houses with shutters torn down There lives a girl everybody calls Patches Patches, my darling, of Old Shanty town We planned to marry when June brought the summer I couldn't wait to make Patches my bride Now I don't see how that ever can happen My folks say "No" and my heart breaks inside Patches, oh what can I do I swear I'll always love you But a girl from that place Would just bring me disgrace So my folks won't let me love you Each night I cry as I think of that shanty And pretty Patches there watching the door She dosn't know that I can't come to see her Patches must think that I love her no more I hear a neighbour telling my father He says a girl name of Patches was found Floating face down in that dirty old river That flows by the coal yards in Old Shanty Town Patches, oh what can I do I swear I'll always love you It may not be right But I'll join you tonight Patches I'm coming to you
