Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Now I taught the weepin' willow how to cry
And I showed the clouds how to cover up a clear, blue sky
And the tears I cried for that woman are gonna flood you, Big River
And I'm gonna sit right here until I die
[Verse 2]
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, cavorting in Davenport
And I followed you, Big River, when you called
[Verse 3]
Then 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
I found her trail in Memphis, but she just walked up the bluff
She raised a few eyebrows and went on down alone
[Verse 4]
Now, won't you batter down by Baton Rouge? River Queen, roll it on
Take that woman on down to New Orleans, New Orleans
Go on, I've had enough, left my blues down in the Gulf
She loves you, Big River, more than me
