Bilingual
Taught the weeping will, how to cry, cry, cry
I showed the clouds how to cover up a clear, clear blue sky
But the tears that I shed for that woman, are gonna flood you big river
And I'm gonna sit right here until I die
Well, I met her accidentally in St. Paul, Minnesota
And she tore me up every time I heard her drawl, Southern drawl
And I heard my dream went back downstream cavortin' in Davenport
And I followed you, big river, when you called
Well, then you took me on down to St. Louis, later on, down the river
A freighter said she's been here but she's gone, boy, she's gone
Well, I found her trail in Memphis, but she just walked up the block
She raised a few eyebrows and then she walked down alone
Why won't you batter down by Baton Rouge, river queen, rolling 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
