Deep River Blues

Let  it  rain,  let  it  pour,

Let  it  rain  a  whole  lot  more,

＇Cause  I  got  them  deep  river  blues.

Let  the  rain  drive  right  on,

Let  the  waves  sweep  along,

＇Cause  I  got  them  deep  river  blues.

My  old  gal＇s  a  good  old  pal,

And  she  looks  like  a  water  fowl,

When  I  get  them  deep  river  blues.

Ain＇t  no  one  to  cry  for  me,

And  the  fish  all  go  out  on  a  spree

When  I  get  them  deep  river  blues.

Give  me  back  my  old  boat,

I＇m  gonna  sail  if  she＇ll  float,

＇Cause  I  got  them  deep  river  blues,

I＇m  goin＇  back  to  Muscle  Shoals,

Times  are  better  there  I＇m  told,

Cause  I  got  them  deep  river  blues.

Let  it  rain,  let  it  pour,

Let  it  rain  a  whole  lot  more,

＇Cause  I  got  them  deep  river  blues,

Let  the  rain  drive  right  on,

Let  the  waves  sweep  along,

＇Cause  I  got  them  deep  river  blues.

If  my  boat  sinks  with  me.

I＇ll  go  down,  don＇t  you  see,

＇Cause  I  got  them  deep  river  blues,

Now  I＇m  gonna  say  goodbye,

And  if  I  sink,  just  let  me  die,

＇Cause  I  got  them  deep  river  blues.

Let  it  rain,  let  it  pour,

Let  it  rain  a  whole  lot  more,

＇Cause  I  got  them  deep  river  blues,

Let  the  rain  drive  right  on,

Let  the  waves  sweep  along,

＇Cause  I  got  them  deep  river  blues
