[00:08.49]I was born and raised on the river
[00:11.70]It's the only life that I know
[00:15.66]People around here have put a name on me
[00:18.86]And I hear it wherever I go
[00:21.57]They call me river boy river boy
[00:27.35]Good for nothing river boy
[00:30.13]This old world don't hold a whole lot of joy
[00:33.39]When you're nothing but a river boy
[00:38.94]I do a lot of fishing on the river
[00:42.60]To make my living you see
[00:45.92]When I take my catch to the market place
[00:49.81]The people call out to me
[00:52.60]And they say river boy hey river boy
[00:57.80]You got any fish today there river boy
[01:00.61]I sell my ware but nobody cares
[01:03.77]About the feelings of the river boy
[01:06.56]
[01:15.00]There's a pretty girl works at the market place
[01:18.75]I see her there everyday
[01:22.46]But when I try to talk to her
[01:26.21]I can hear her papa say
[01:28.53]Come away from that river boy he's a river boy
[01:34.36]Nothing but riff raff them river boys
[01:37.40]No girl of mine is gonna waste her time
[01:40.22]On a good for nothing river boy
[01:45.57]So I head my boat back up the river
[01:49.62]Back to my old fishing place
[01:52.80]I'm afraid this ol river's gonna overflow
[01:56.46]From the tears a falling down my face
[01:59.66]I'm nothing but a river boy river boy
[02:05.09]A good for nothing river boy
[02:08.02]This old world don't hold a whole lot of joy
[02:11.22]When you're nothing but a river boy
[02:16.29]River boy river boy
[02:19.60]A good for nothing river boy
