C
We crossed the wild Pecos
F C
We forded the Nueces

We swum the Guadalupe

And we followed the Brazos

Red River runs rusty
F C
The Wichita clear
C
And down by the Brazos
G C
I courted my dear
[Chorus]

Li, li, le, le, le
C G
Lend me your hand

Li, li, li, le, le, le
G C
Lend me your hand

Li, li, li, le, le, le
C G
Lend me your hand
G G
There's many a river
G C
That waters the land
[Verse 2]
C
Now the fair Angelina
F C
Runs glossy and gliding
C
The crooked Colorado
G
Runs weaving and winding
C
The slow San Antonio
F C
Courses the plains
C
But never will I walk
G C
By the Brazos again
[Chorus]
C F
Li, li, le, le, le
C G
Lend me your hand
C F
Li, li, li, le, le, le
G C
Lend me your hand
C F
Li, li, li, le, le, le
C G
Lend me your hand
G G
There's many a river
G C
That waters the land
[Verse 3]
C
She kissed me and she hugged me
F C
And she called me her dandy
C
The Trinity's muddy
G
But the Brazos quicksandy
C
She kissed me and she hugged me
F C
And she called me her own
C
But down by the Brazos
G C
She left me alone
[Chorus]

Li, li, le, le, le

Lend me your hand

Li, li, li, le, le, le

Lend me your hand

Lend me your hand

She left me alone

Well the girls of Little River
F C
They're plump and they're pretty

The Sabine and the Sulphur

Have beauties a many

The banks of the Neches
F C
There's girls by the score
C
But down by the Brazos
G C
I'll wander no more
[Chorus]

Li, li, le, le, le

Lend me your hand

Li, li, li, le, le, le

Lend me your hand

Li, li, li, le, le, le

Lend me your hand

There's many a river

That waters the land
