Goin' To The River

Dave Bartholomew / Fats Domino

I'm goin' to the river,
gonna jump overboard and drown
I'm goin' to the river,
gonna jump overboard and drown
Ya know, the girl I love
She just done let me down

Now when she left me,
I bowed my head and cried
When she left me,
I bowed my head and cried
I never thought I would be,
I would be the one to cry

If you see my mama,
Tell her - tell her good-bye for me
If you see my mama,
Tell her - tell her good-bye for me
I'm tired of livin' -
Livin' in misery

Aw right

If you see my mama,
Tell her - tell her good-bye for me
If you see my mama,
Tell her - tell her good -bye for me
Ya know I'm tired of livin' -
Livin' in misery

(Melody is sung using waa-waa's in place of lyrics)

I'm going to the river
Gonna jump overboard and drown
I'm going to the river
Gonna jump overboard and drown
Because the girl I love,
She left and let me down
