Freddie King - Woman Across The River Lyrics






Across the river
A good woman cried
All because
A foolish man had lied
She give up all she had
To show how much she cared
But the man told so many lies
Now another man is over there

That woman across the river
Sweet woman across the river
She was mine

Word got around
That he had jilted her
And men came running
Came running from near and far
How I been such a fool
Never never never know
But the man
He's got to know
He's a lucky so and so

That woman across the river
Sweet woman across the river
She was mine

Met her one day
About a week ago
She said "I don't even want to talk to you
Cause, I don't love you any more"

That woman across the river
Sweet woman across the river
She was mine
