SINGER: Oak Ridge Boys

SONG:Take A Lot Of River

I ain't gonna ride no rail or hitchhike down no highway
i aint' going nowhere feeling the way i do
because my baby's long gone and nothings going my way
i'm gonna let this muddy water just wash away my blues.
Chorus:
Gonna take a lot of river,
to keep this broken heart afloat,
gonna take a lot of river
running all the live long days,
gonna take the mississippi, the monongahela and the ohio,
gonna take a lot of river
to wash these blues away,
Well i wish i was tug boat pushing and pulling them barges along
moving on the water with a heart made of iron and steel
there wouldn't be no women that could ever take my loving and do me wrong
i could work all day with nothing in the world to feel.
Chorus:
Gonna take a lot of river
to keep this broken heart afloat
gonna take a lot of river
running all the live long days
gonna take the mississippi, the monongahela and the ohio
gonna take a lot of river
to wash these blues away
Is she in new orleans
is she a cajun queen
i wonder what she's doing now
but if i know her she's got rings and furs struggeling along somehow
Chorus:
Gonna take a lot of river
to keep this broken heart afloat
gonna take a lot of river
running all the live long days
gonna take the mississippi, the monongahela and the ohio
gonna take a lot of river
to wash these blues away
Gonna take a lot of river
to keep this broken heart afloat
gonna take a lot of river
running all the live long days
gonna take the mississippi, the monongahela and the ohio
gonna take a lot of river
to wash these blues away
