E
I taught the weepin' willow how to cry, cry, cry.
B7
And I showed the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky.
E A
And the tears that I cried for that woman are gonna flood you, big river.
E B7 E
And I'm gonna sit right here until I die.
E
I met her accidentally in St. Paul, Minnesota.
B7
And it tore me up every time I heard her drawl, southern drawl.
E A
And I heard my dream, Went back downstream, cavortin' in Davenport,
E B7 E
And I followed you, big river, when she called.
Break:
E A
E B7 E
E
Oh, she took me to St. Louie later on, down the river.
B7
Freighter said, "She's been here, but she's gone, boy, she's gone."
E A
And I found her trail in Memphis, but she just walked up the club.
E B7 E
Raised a few eyebrows and went on down alone.
E
Well, I pulled into Natches next day down river,
B7
But there wasn't much there to make the rounders stay very long.
E A
When I left it was rainin' so nobody saw me cry.
E B7 E
Big river, why she doin' me this way?
Break:
E A
E B7 E
E
Now, won't you batter down by Baton Rouge, River Queen, roll it on.
B7
Take that woman on down to New Orleans, New Orleans.
E A
Go on, I've had enough, dump my blues down in the gulf.
E B7 E
She loves you, big river, more than me.
E
I taught the weepin' willow how to cry, cry, cry.
B7
And I showed the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky.
E A
And the tears that I cried for that woman are gonna flood you, big river.
E B7 E
And I'm gonna sit right here until I die.
