Lyrics
0:07Now I taught the weeping willow how to cry
0:12And I showed the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky
0:17The And tears that I cried for that woman are gonna flood you
0:22RiverBig
0:22Then I'm gonna sit right here until I die
0:28I met her accidentally in St Paul (Minnesota)
0:33And it tore me up every time I heard her drawl
0:37Southern drawl
0:38Then I heard my dream was back
0:40Downstream cavortin' in Davenport
0:44And I followed you
0:45Big River when you called
1:04Then you took me to St Louis later on (down the river)
1:10A freighter said she's been here but she's gone boy she's gone
1:15I found her trail in Memphis but she just walked up the block
1:20She raised a few eyebrows and then she went on down alone
1:25Now won't you batter down by Baton Rouge
1:28River Queen roll it on
1:31Take that woman on down to New Orleans
1:35New Orleans
1:36Go on I've had enough dump my blues down in the gulf
1:41She loves you
1:43Big River more than me
2:02Now I taught the weeping willow how to cry cry cry
2:07And I showed the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky
2:13And the tears that I cried for that woman are gonna flood you
2:17Big River
2:17Then I'm gonna sit right here until I die
Now I taught the weeping willow how to cry And I showed the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky The And tears that I cried for that woman are gonna flood you RiverBig Then I'm gonna sit right here until I die 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 was back Downstream cavortin' in Davenport And I followed you Big River when you called 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 block She raised a few eyebrows and then she went on down alone 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 dump my blues down in the gulf She loves you Big River more than me Now I taught the weeping willow how to cry cry cry And I showed the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky And the tears that I cried for that woman are gonna flood you Big River Then I'm gonna sit right here until I die
