Bluegrass Songs - Lyrics www.traditionalmusic.co.uk 
Lonesome river 
I sit here alone, oh the banks of the river The lonesome wind blows, the water rolls high I hear a voice call out there in the darkness I sit here alone too lonesome to cry
 Oh the water rolls high on the river at midnight I sit on the ahore to weep and cry The woman I love she left me this morning With no one to love or kiss me good night 
We met there one night on the banks of the river We stood holding hands and making our vows Swore we'd never part we'd be happy forever But a new love she's found she'd gone from me now
 * Refrain
