GaryD,

Here's a version of the song the way its sung around here. Hope it helps.

ROCKINOVER RIVER

I'll take my guitar for a ride
Out here where the plains are wide,
You'll know where I'm goin', right or wrong.
I'm headed for a spot out there,
My pony knows he's headed where
The Rockinover River rolls along.

Chorus: Rockinover, Rockinover,
I'm singin' with the river as I ride,
Rockinover, Rockinover,
Flow ye crystal waters down the mountainside.
(Yodel)

The old campfire will soon be gleamin'
Dog and I are there a-dreamin'
Where old Rockinover rolls along.
Nightset comes and water falls,
I just ain't got no cares at all,
As long as I can sing my yodelin' song.

(Chorus, and yodel)

Dear old "Rocky" I'm a-comin'
Hear my old guitar a-strummin'
Singing as I'm riding all alone,
Never thought I'd see the day
I'd wander quite so far away
From my dear old rocky river home.
