Songtexte

Well, I taught the weeping willow how to cry, cry, cry
And I showed the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky
And the tears I cried for that woman
They're gonna flood you, Big River
But I'm a-gonna sit right here until I die
Well, I met her accidentally in St. Paul, Minnesota
And it tore me up every time I heard her drawl, Southern drawl
Then I heard my dream went back downstream to Portage and Davenport
And I followed you, Big River, when you called
And you took me to St. Louis later on down the river
A freighter said she's been here but she's gone, boy, she's gone
Well, I found the trail to Memphis but she just walked up the bluff
She raised a few eyebrows and went on down alone
Won't you batter on down to Baton Rouge, River Queen, roll it on
Take that woman on down to New Orleans, New Orleans
Go on, I've had enough, dump my blues out in the gulf
'Cause she loves you, Big River, more than me
Well, I taught the weeping willow how to cry, cry, cry
And I showed the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky
And the tears I cried for that woman
They're gonna flood you, Big River
But I'm a-gonna sit right here until I die
Yeah, I'm a-gonna sit right here until I die
