I went Edown to the river to watch the fish swim by;
EBut I got to the river so Elonesome I wanted to die, oh Lord!
And then I B7jumped in the river, but the doggone river was Edry.
She's Elong Agone, and Enow I'm B7lonesome Eblue.
I Ehad me a woman who couldn't be true.
EShe made me for my money and she made me blue.
A Aman needs a woman that he can lean on,
But my Eleanin' post is done B7left and Egone.
She's Elong Agone, and Enow I'm B7lonesome Eblue.

I'm gonna Efind me a river, one that's cold as ice.
EAnd when I find me that river, ELord I'm gonna pay the price, oh Lord!
I'm goin' B7down in it three times, but Lord I'm only comin' up Etwice.
She's Elong Agone, and Enow I'm B7lonesome Eblue.
She Etold me on Sunday she was checkin' me out;
EAlong about Monday she was nowhere about.
And Ahere it is Tuesday, ain't had no news.
I Egot them gone but not forB7gotten Eblues.
She's Elong Agone, and Enow I'm B7lonesome Eblue.
