Autumn leaves are falling on the riverside
A young lady with bitter tears in her eyes
Either leave or get buried into the ground
But a mummy can never part from her child
Autumn leaves are coloring her thighs and arms
When she can't hide them, well she knows how to lie
She is just like a bird with two broken wings
But she's about to find some other way to fly
Oh won't you never come back
Escape escape
Oh won't you never come back
Run, run mother run
Run, run mother run
Oh oh escape from the trap
Oh won't you never come back
Escape from the trap
Oh but how long will it last
Run
Run
Autumn leaves are falling on the riverside
But a mummy can never part from her child
