Lots of rivers did in Cromwell's time. He was a nutter who killed people because he didn't like their religion. Not unlike ... well, best not to go there, there are so many like him both in history and today.

Cromwell had nothing to do with the battle of the boyne, that was king william of orange.
Yes when cromwell sacked drogheda, and killed many of the citizens men women and children for being catholic, this was 100 or so years before the battle of the boyne.

The English monarchy was restored in 1660. When King James II, a Catholic, succeeded his brother Charles II to the throne, and showed signs of raising his son and heir to be Catholic as well, members of Parliament feared England's complete return to Catholicism. In 1688 these members took it upon themselves to invite James' Protestant daughter Mary and her husband William of Orange to take the English throne. Although this 'Glorious Revolution' was largely peaceful within England, battles were fought in Ireland between the Catholics, loyal to James, and the Protestants, loyal to William and Mary. A decisive battle was fought at the Boyne River near Dublin in 1690,

The Battle of the Boyne happened in the fields around the Boyne, and there was no shortage of bloodshed. Even if all those bodies were not in the water, there may have been some blood filtering through the ground, in the same way that after heavy rain in boggy areas, the river water has a brown colour from drainage through the turf. In the Boyne, there may have been some evidence of blood.

And Cromwell was a nasty violent person too, and some of his victims could easily have ended up in the water.

It runs with water just like any other river in the world

Yes after the battle of Boyne
