Lyrics

[Intro]
Deep river woman
Lord, I'm coming home to you
Deep river woman
Lord, I know she's waiting
Just anticipating
All my love
[Verse 1]
Spent a night in L.A.
Just another chance to see you
Just you and I
Wanted you to know
That my playing days are over
'Cause all I do is think of you
The writing's on the wall
[Chorus]
Deep river woman
Lord, I'm coming home to you
Deep river woman
Lord, I know she's waiting
Just anticipating
All my love
[Verse 2]
I've been out in the world
Yes, the fast life had me going
Now, all that's changed
I finally made up my mind
About the one thing I've been knowing
You're the only girl I've ever cared for in this world
[Chorus]
Deep river woman
Lord, I'm coming home to you
Deep river woman
Lord, I know she's waiting
Just anticipating
All my love
[Bridge]
Your kind of love, girl, is forever
It took me a long time to realize
That I've come so far and end up going nowhere
Oh girl, I need you by my side
[Chorus]
Oh, deep river woman
Lord, I'm coming home to you
Deep river woman
Lord, I know she's waiting
Just anticipating
All my love
