Big River lyrics
Song information
Artist: Grateful Dead Album: Steal Your Face
Lyrics
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 I'm a gonna sit right here until I die
I met her accidentally in st. paul, minnesota She tore me up every time 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. lou, later on down the river Trader said she's been here, but she's gone, boy, she's 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 I've gotten on down to baton rouge, river queen roll on Take that woman down to new orleans, new orleans I give up, I've had enough, followed my blues on down to the gulf She loves you big river more than me
