Long Gone Lonesome Blues Sözleri

I went down to the river to watch the fish swim by

But when I got to the river so lonesome I wanted to die oh Lawd

And then I jumped in the river but the doggone river was dry

I had me a woman she couldn't be untrue

She made me for money and she made me blue

A man needs a woman that he can lean on

But my leanin' post is done and left and gone

She's long gone and now I'm lonesome blues

[ piano ]

Gonna find me a river one that's cold as ice

When I find me that river Lord I'm gonna pay the price oh Lawd

I'm goin' down in it three times but I'm only comin' back twice

She told me on Sunday she was checkin' me out

Along about Monday she was nowhere about

And here it is Tuesday ain't had no news got them gone but not forgotten blues

She's long gone and now I'm lonesome blues
