作詞:JOHNNY CASH / 作曲:JOHNNY CASH
Well I taught that weeping willow how to cry cry cry
Taught the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky.
Tears I cried for that woman are gonna flood you big river
And Im a gonna sit right here until I die.
I met her accidentally in st. paul minnesota
She tore me up everything I heard her drawl that southern drawl.
Well I heard my dream went back downstream cavortin in davenport
And I follow you big river when you called.
Well I followed her down to st. louie later on down the river
Trader said shes been here but shes gone boy shes gone.
Well I followed her down to memphis but she just walked off the bus
She raised a few eyebrows and she went on down alone.
Well Ive gotten on down to baton rouge river queen roll on
Take that woman down to new orleans new orleans.
I give up Ive had enough followed my blues on down to the gulf
She loves you big river more than me.
