Lyrics:

(A-plink a chunk, ooh, ooh, ooh a-plink a chunk, ooh, ooh, ooh a-plink a chunk)

I wait with open arms (a-plink a chunk)
Down by the river where the boats comes in (a-plink a chunk)
And when the boats come in I run to him with open arms (a-plink a chunk)

Although he's on the shore (a-plink a chunk)
His heart is still a hundred miles at sea (a-plink a chunk)
But then he kisses me and I can tell he's mine once more

All night I hold him tight
He's mine until the dawn

Then when the fishing boats
Go out again he's gone
Gone away and

I pray all through the day (a-plink a chunk)
That he'll return and make my life begin (a-plink a chunk)
And when his boat comes in I run to him with open arms

(Down by the river where the boats come in)

All night I hold him tight
He's mine until the dawn

Then when the fishing boats
Go out again he's gone
Gone away and

I pray all through the day (a-plink a chunk)
That he'll return and make my life begin (a-plink a chunk)
And when his boat comes in I run to him with (with open arms) open (with open arms) arms

(Down by the river where the boats come in)
(A-plink a chunk)
