Lyrics
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
