Afbert E. Brumley? Wow!! That's absolutely correct, but I never would have found it. Here are the lyrics, from The Best of Albert E. Brumley (1966, Albert E. Brumley & Sons) - http://www.brumleymusic.com/

DID YOU EVER GO SAILIN'?
[Down the River of Memories]
(Albert E. Brumley)

There's an old ramshackle shack where in dreams I wander back
And listen to those Southern melodies
'Twas the place where I was born on a bright October morn
And it's nestled at the end of my river of memories

CHORUS:
Did you ever go sailin' down the river of memories
To a little log cabin that is nestled among the sycamore trees
Where the sunshine is cheery and nothing in the world grows dreary
That's the cabin at the end of my river of memories

There's a mother old and grey at the end of memory's way
I will meet her there tonight among the trees
With a smile of welcome she so sweetly beckons me
To that cabin at the end of my river of memories
CHORUS

When the twilight shadows fall many childhood voices call
Call me back again to days that used to be
And in answer to their pray'r I will soon be sailin' there
To that cabin at the end of my river of memories
CHORUS
