| [00:07.36] |
Now I taught the weeping willow how to cry, |
| [00:13.03] |
And I showed the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky. |
| [00:18.34] |
the And tears that I cried for that woman are gonna flood you |
| [00:22.47] |
River.Big |
| [00:23.77] |
Then I'm gonna sit right here until I die. |
| [00:28.94] |
I met her accidentally in St. Paul (Minnesota). |
| [00:34.12] |
And it tore me up every time I heard her drawl, |
| [00:37.68] |
Southern drawl. |
| [00:39.42] |
Then I heard my dream was back |
| [00:41.42] |
Downstream cavortin' in Davenport, |
| [00:44.79] |
And I followed you, |
| [00:46.10] |
Big River, when you called. |
| [01:05.16] |
Then you took me to St. Louis later on (down the river). |
| [01:11.21] |
A freighter said she's been here but she's gone, boy, she's gone. |
| [01:16.22] |
I found her trail in Memphis, but she just walked up the block. |
| [01:21.16] |
She raised a few eyebrows and then she went on down alone. |
| [01:26.27] |
Now, won't you batter down by Baton Rouge, |
| [01:29.39] |
River Queen, roll it on. |
| [01:32.51] |
Take that woman on down to New Orleans, |
| [01:35.01] |
New Orleans. |
| [01:37.38] |
Go on, I've had enough; dump my blues down in the gulf. |
| [01:42.43] |
She loves you, |
| [01:44.18] |
Big River, more than me. |
| [02:03.31] |
Now I taught the weeping willow how to cry, cry, cry |
| [02:08.86] |
And I showed the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky. |
| [02:14.23] |
And the tears that I cried for that woman are gonna flood you |
| [02:18.31] |
Big River. |
| [02:19.63] |
Then I'm gonna sit right here until I die. |
| [00:00.009] |
