I taught the weeping willow how to 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 And I'm gonna sit right here until I die I met her accidentally in Saint Paul Minnesota And it tore me up every time I heard her drawl southern drawl Then I heard my dream went back downstream cavorting in Davenport And I followed you big river when you called She took me to Saint Louis later on down the river A freighter said She's been here but she's gone boy she's gone And I found her trail in Memphis but she’d just walked up the bluff She raised a few eyebrows and 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 And I'm gonna sit right here until I die
