Big River (Live)

I taught the weeping willow how to cry
And I showed the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky
But the tears I cried for that woman
Are gonna flood you big river
Gonna flood you big river
Gonna flood you big river
Well I met her accidentally in St. Paul, Minnesota
She tore me up every time she drawled her southern drawl
But my dream went capartin' back downstream, Lord
Went on down to Davenport
Capartin' in Davenport
Then she followed you big river when she called
Then she followed you big river when she called
Then I tracked her down to St. Louis
Later on down the river
A freighter man said she's been here but she's gone
Then I found her Lord comin' back up on the Central Line
She raised a few eyebrows when she went on down alone
Well go down, down by Baton Rouge
River Queen, rollin' on
Take that woman on down to New Orleans, roll on
Tell her I've had enough
Drown my blues down in a cup
She loves you big river more than me
More than me
More than me
More than me
Well I taught the weeping willow how to cry
And I showed the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky
The tears I cried for that woman
Are gonna flood you big river
And I'm gonna sit right here
I'm gonna sit right here
I'm gonna sit right here
'Til I die
'Til I die
'Til I die
