Riverside Blues Songtext
von Sam Collins

I went down to the river, slept thirty-one days and nights
I went down to the river, slept thirty-one days and nights
I′m lookin' for my good gal, come back and treat me right
I ain′t got me nobody carry my troubles to
I ain't got nobody carry my troubles to
I tell you peoples, I don't know what to do


Jeffersonville train, Lord, backs up in your yard
Jeffersonville train, backs up in your yard
I′m goin′ to see my baby if I have to ride the rods

I went away last summer, got back in the fall
Went away last summer, got back in that fall
My mind hadn't changed, I wouldn′t have come back at all

You can press my jumper and my overhall
You can press my jumper and my overhall
I'm goin′ to the station, meet the Cannonball
