I went down to the river to watch the fish swim by; |
| [00:23.500] |
But I got to the river so lonesome I wanted to die..., Oh Lord! |
| [00:31.570] |
And then I jumped in the river, |
| [00:33.850] |
but the doggone river was dry. |
| [00:39.200] |
She's long gone, and now I'm lonesome blue. |
| [00:51.290] |
I had me a woman who couldn't be true. |
| [00:55.800] |
She made me for my money and she made me blue. |
| [00:58.990] |
A man needs a woman that he can lean on, |
| [01:02.680] |
But my leanin' post is done left and gone. |
| [01:09.470] |
She's long gone, and now I'm lonesome blue. |
| [01:28.930] |
I'm gonna find me a river, one that's cold as ice. |
| [01:36.610] |
And when I find me that river, Lord I'm gonna pay the price, Oh Lord! |
| [01:44.509] |
I'm goin' down in it three times, |
| [01:46.720] |
but Lord I'm only comin up twice. |
| [01:52.370] |
She's long gone, and now I'm lonesome blue. |
| [02:04.530] |
She told me on Sunday she was checkin' me out; |
| [02:08.478] |
Long about Monday she was nowhere about. |
| [02:12.500] |
And here it is Tuesday, ain't had no news. |
| [02:16.360] |
I got them gone but not forgotten blues. |
| [02:22.980] |
She's long gone, and now I'm lonesome blue. |
