Текст песни: River Blues + перевод

Take my letter down to Southport

And send it on its way

Oh, down the river

My baby stays

Under the willow

I see her sweet face

Take my letter today

If she won’t love me

Or want me no more

I’ll go down the river

And I’ll cry at her door

And if she won’t answer

I’ll howl like a dog

Down on my knees 'til I can’t howl anymore

I can’t stand it no more

As I wait through the years

That run bye and bye

While this river winds down

My tears they stream long

And I’ll carry your picture

'Til I’m dead and gone

The woman I’ve been loving

Is doing me wrong

Been out on the river

'Til the break of dawn

Oh, when she comes home

I just wish I were gone

And my love will never be the same

Until I’m dead and gone

I can’t stand it no more

As I wait through the years

That run bye and bye

This river winds down

While my tears they stream long

And love will never be the same

Until I’m dead and gone

Until I’m dead and gone

Take my letter down to Southport

And send it on it’s way

Oh, down the river

My baby lay

Under the willow

The roots warm her grave

Take my letter today

Take my letter today
