Down The River

Yeah I'm just floatin' down this river,
floatin' down this river - oh Lord
Yeah I'm just floatin' down this river,
floatin' down this river - goin' home
Got me a suitcase full of tears n' I'm
bringing 'em all home to you

Yeah I'm goin' to see my baby,
goin' to see my baby - oh lord
Yeah I'm goin' to see my sweetheart,
goin' to see my sweetheart - so cold
They got here lyin' in a pine box
waiting for the worms below

On the wind I hear her,
on the wind I hear her call my name
She calls me with here sweet lips,
calls and says she's waiting for me
That's why I'm floatin' down this river
so I can join my baby

Got me a pocket full of pills,
pocket full of pills an' whiskey
Got me a pocket full of pills,
pocket full of pills an' whiskey
Goin' home to see my baby so cold
she's waiting for me.

Yeah I'm just floatin' down this river,
floatin' down this river - oh Lord
Slowly floatin' down this river,
floatin' down this river - so cold
Goin' home to see my baby so cold
she's waiting for me.

Goin' home to see my baby so cold
she waiting for me.
