River Blues

Take my letter down to southport send it on its way Long down the river My baby stays Under the willow I can still see her sweet face Take my letter today And if she don't love me Or want me no more Then I'll go down the river And cry at her door And if she won't answer I'll howl like a dog Down on my knees til' I can't howl anymore I can't stand it no more As I wait through the years That run bye and bye While this river winds down My tears they stream long And I'll carry your picture Til' I'm dead and gone The women I've been loving Is doing me wrong Been out on the river Until the break of dawn oh when she comes home I just wish she were gone My love will never be the same Until I'm dead and gone I can't stand it no more As I wait through the years That run bye and bye While this river winds down My tears they stream long And I'll carry your picture Til' I'm dead and gone Take my letter down to Southport Send it on it's way Long down the river Where my Baby lay Under the willow The roots warm her grave Take my letter today, take my letter today
