Rock Away Blues

You ever wake up in the morning Feeling kind of blue? Have you ever felt so bad You didn't know what to do? That something put me low down And left me by you I went up to the river I sit down and cry They say the Mississippi River Is both deep and wide I saw my lover and my best friend Drifting like the tide Now I think I see them On the other side Oh now, I've got the crying blues Now I've got the sighing blues Just like two freights, they coincide Inside they find my lover hardly satisfied I'm going to the river, take me a rocking chair If the blues overtake me, I'll rock away from here If you want to keep your lover, better get a lock and key Because my best friend stole my gal away from me I'm going to the river with a rope and a rock If the blues overtake me, ill jump over the dock Now the brook run in the river The river into the sea If my baby didn't want me She should have left me be Now I ain't got nobody Who love and care for me Oh now, I got the crying blues Now I got the sighing blues I'm going to find the girl I love to see And I'll listen to what she has to say If you don't worry, jump in the deep blue sea I know the shark and the fishes, will make a bustle of me
