Robbie Robertson - Going To The River Lyrics

Well, I'm goin' to the river
Gonna jump overboard and drown
I'm goin' to the river
Gonna jump overboard and drown
'Cause that gal I love
She just left town

When she left me
I bowed my head and cried
When she left me
Bowed my head and cried
I never thought that I
Would be the one to cry

Then the fat man sing
Wah wah wah wah wah wah wah
Wah wah wah wah wha wah wah

Well, if you see my mama
Tell her good-bye for me
I you see my mama
Tell her good-bye for me
But I'm tired of livin'
Livin' in misery, yeah

Well I'm goin' to the river
Gonna jump overboard and drown
I'm goin' to the river
Gonna jump overboard and drown
'Cause that gal I love
She just left town

Well, I miss my baby
When that church bell rings (oh)
Well, I miss my baby
When that church bell rings (yeah)
But I know it ain't over
Till the fat man sings
Domino

I got
Wah wah, wah wah wah
Wah wah, wah wah wah wah wah

I said bye bye baby
Said fare thee well
I said bye bye baby
Fare thee well
Well, I'll see you in heaven
But I'll meet you in hell
Yeah
