Going to the River

Dave Bartholomew, Fats Domino, Domino & Bartholomew

[Verse 1]
I'm goin' to the river
Gonna jump overboard and drown
I'm goin' to the river
Gonna jump overboard and drown
Because the gal I love
She just done left this town

[Verse 2]
When she left me
I bowed my head and cried
When she left me
I bowed my head and cried
I never thought I'd be
I'd be the one to cry

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
If you see my mama
Tell her good-bye for me
If you see my mama
Tell hеr good-bye for me, uh-huh
I'm tired of livin'
Livin' in misеry

[Outro]
If you see my mama
Tell her good-bye for me
If you see my mama
