Woman Across the River

Across the river a good woman cried All because a foolish man lied She gave up everything Everything that money could buy But the man told so many lies There's another man over there That woman across the river Sweet woman across the river, she was mine Word got around that he had jilted her Men came running from near and far Should've never been so foolish Guess I'll never But the man that's got her now He's a lucky so and so That woman across the river Sweet woman across the river, she was mine I remember the other day, about a week ago She said, "I don't even want to talk to you 'Cause I don't love you anymore" That woman across the river Sweet woman across the river, she was mine Across the river a good woman cried All because a foolish man lied She gave up everything, tried to keep him satisfied But the man told so many lies There's another man over there That woman across the river That woman across the river That woman across the river Sweet woman across the river, she was mine
