lyrics

(I'm Goin') Down By The River
copyright T R Munday 2017

I'm goin' down by the river
Down by the river, don't you know
Down by the river, that's where I'm goin' to go

If you see my baby
Tell her that I'm gone
Say I took the southbound train
And I'm rollin' right along

I'm goin' down by the river
Down by the river, don't you know
Down by the river, that's where I'm goin' to go

If you see my boss man
Tell him I'm OK
But I ain't workin' anymore
For such little pay

I'm goin' down by the river
Down by the river, don't you know
Down by the river, that's where I'm goin' to go

If you want my winter coat
Man it's yours for free
I'm travellin' light as I'm leavin' town
And I don't need that with me

Down by the river
Down by the river, don't you know
Down by the river, that's where I'm goin' to go

Leavin' from Chicago
Jump that outbound train
You can bet I ain't comin' back
To this place again

I'm goin' down by the river
Down by the river, don't you know
Down by the river, that's where I'm goin' to go
That's where I'm goin' to go
