Tommy Emmanuel - Deep River Blues lyrics

[Tommy Emmanuel - Deep River Blues lyrics]

Let it rain, let it pour
Let it rain a whole lot more
'Cause, I got them deep river blues
Let the rain drive right on
Let the waves just sweep along
'Cause, I got them deep river blues

My old girl's a good old pal
She looks like a water fowl
When I get them deep river blues
When there ain't no one to cry for me
And the fish all go out on a spree
When I get them deep river blues

Give me back my old boat
And I'm gonna sail if she'll float
'Cause, I got them deep river blues
Well I'm goin' back to Muscle Shoals
Times are gettin' better there I'm told
'Cause, I got them deep river blues

If my boat sinks with me
I'll go down, don't you see
'Cause, I got them deep river blues
Now I'm gonna say goodbye
And if I sink, just let me die
'Cause, I got them deep river blues

Let it rain, let it pour
Let it rain a whole lot more
'Cause, I got them deep river blues
Let the rain drive right on
Let the waves just sweep along
'Cause, I got them deep river blues
'Cause, I got them deep river blues
