Big River - Live at Richmond Coliseum, Richmond, VA, November 1, 1985

Well I taught that weeping willow how to cry cry cry,
 Taught the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky.
 Tears I cried for that woman are gonna flood you big river,
 And I'm a gonna sit right here until I die.
 I met her accidentally in St. Paul, Minnesota,
 She tore me up everything I heard her drawl, that southern drawl.
 Well I heard my dream went back downstream, cavortin' in Davenport,
 And I follow you big river when you called.
 Well I followed her down to St. Louie, later on down the river,
 Trader said she's been here, but she's gone, boy, she's gone.
 Well I followed her down to Memphis, but she just walked off the bus,
 She raised a few eyebrows and she went on down alone.
 Well I've gotten on down to Baton Rouge, River Queen roll on,
 Take that woman down to New Orleans, New Orleans.
 I give up, I've had enough, followed my blues on down to the gulf,
 She loves you big river more than me.
