Bilingual
I've been all across the country
I've played in all the towns
'Cause I'm tryin' to find my baby
But no one has seen her around, around
Now you know which way I'm a-headin'
If my baby can't be found
Well, I spoke to the river
And the river spoke back to me
And it said, "You look so lonely
You look full of misery," uh-huh
"And if you can't find your baby
Come and make your home with me," alright
ย
Well, I don't want to leave her
'Cause I know she's still alive
And someday I'm gonna find her
And I'll take her for a ride, I'll take her for a ride
And we'll live our lives forever
In a home upon the tide, it's alright
I said I spoke, haha, to the river
And the river spoke back to me
Said, "You look so lonely, Junior
You look full of, haha, you look full of misery
Come on and make your home with me"
But I'm gonna find my baby
Take her for a ride
I know she'll be my bride
It's alright
