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

But I got to the river so lonesome I wanted to die, Oh Lord!
G7 C
And then I jumped in the river, but the doggone river was dry.
C F C G7 C
She's long gone, and now I'm lonesome blue.

I had me a woman who couldn't be true.
C7
She made me for my money and she made me blue.

A man needs a woman that he can lean on,

But my leanin' post is done left and gone.

I'm gonna find me a river, one that's cold as ice.

And when I find me that river, Lord I'm gonna pay the price, Oh Lord!

She's long gone, and now I'm lonesome blue.

And here it is Tuesday, ain't had no news.
