Текст песни: Big River + перевод

Well, I taught that weeping willow how to cry cry cry,

Taught the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky.

Tears I cried for that woman are gonna flood you big river,

And I’m a gonna sit right here until I die.

I met her accidentally in Saint Paul, Minnesota,

Tore me up everytime I heard her drawl, that southern drawl.

I heard my dream went back downstream, cavortin' in Davenport,

And I follow you big river where you go.

Well, I taught that weeping willow how to cry cry cry,

Taught the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky.

Tears I cried for that woman are gonna flood you big river,

And I’m a gonna sit right here until I die.

Well, I follow her down to Saint Louie, later on down the river,

A freighter said she’s been here but she’s gone, boy, she’s

Gone.

Well I follow her down to Memphis, but she just walked off the

Bluff,

She raised a few eyebrows and she went on down alone.

Well, I taught that weeping willow how to cry cry cry,

Taught the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky.

Tears I cried for that woman are gonna flood you big river,

And I’m a gonna sit right here until I die.

Well, I’m bound on down to Baton Rouge, River Queen roll on,

Take that woman down to New Orleans, New Orleans.

I give up, I’ve had enough, forget my blues on down to the gulf,

She loves you big river more than me.

Well, I taught that weeping willow how to cry cry cry,

Taught the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky.

Tears I cried for that woman are gonna flood you big river,

And I’m a gonna sit right here until I die.

Well, I taught that weeping willow how to cry cry cry,

Taught the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky.

Tears I cried for that woman are gonna flood you big river,

And I’m a gonna sit right here until I die.

And I’m a gonna sit right here until I die

And I’m a gonna sit right here until I die.
