<P> (Chorus) </P> <P> Down by the old mill stream where I first met you, With your eyes of blue, dressed in gingham too, It was there I knew that you loved me true, You were sixteen, my village queen, by the old mill stream . </P> <P> In the middle section of his song "We Will All Go Together When We Go," Tom Lehrer parodied "Down By the Old Mill Stream" with a stride piano, singing the following words in reference to a nuclear holocaust: "Down by the old Mael - strom / There'll be a storm before the Calm ." </P> <P> Alvin and the Chipmunks covered the song for their 1965 album The Chipmunks Sing with Children . They also performed the song as both the prologue and the epilogue for their 1982 album Chipmunk Rock . </P>

Who sang down by the old mill stream
