M I S S I S S I P P I
Mississippi River in the USA
Now let's go, let's go to the Congo
It's there, it's there flows the river Zaire

Through eight countries, many cities and towns
The Danube River, in Europe is found
Don't forget the Tigris Euphrates of Mesopotamia
River, giver to civilization

Now sacred to the Hindu in India is the river Ganges
The longest river in Asia, the Chinese call the Yangtze
While the Yellow River carries yellow silt
Down to the gulf of the Yellow Sea

The Amazon, the Amazon, rain forest river four thousand miles long
The longest river in all the world,
rolling on for miles
In Egypt flows the ageless Nile

From the mountains down to the valleys,
to all the ocean shores
Rivers of the world flow forever more
Rivers of the world flow forever more

Rivers of The World
