With Valentines Day not far off I thought you might get a kick out of this song about Niagara Falls and lovers published in 1841.The author is unknown.
Oh the lovers come a thousand miles,
They leave their home and mothers,
Yet when they reach Niagara Falls
They only see each other.
See Niagara’s waters rolling
See the misty spray
See the happy lovers strolling
It’s everybody’s wedding day.
To see the Falls they took a ride
Oh the steamship “Maid O’ the Mist”,
She forgot the Falls she was so busy
Being hugged and kissed.
See the mighty river rushing
“Tween its rocky walls
See the happy lovers strolling
By our Niagara Falls.
He said, “Is oo my darling?”
He said, “Whose darling is oo?”
He said, “Is oo my baby?”
And she always answered, “Goo-goo-goo.”
Rod Stewart eat your heart out!
