Bluegrass Songs - Roll muddy river

Roll muddy river

    Roll, muddy river, roll on, muddy river, roll on
    I've got a notion you'll go to the ocean alone
    Cause I've got a baby in Tennessee
    Who's long been awaiting for little old me
    So, roll, muddy river, roll on, muddy river, roll on

Three long months on a sand barge tour
How much more can a man endure
It's high time I was home for sure
So roll, muddy river, roll on

  * Refrain

New orleans on to old St.Lou
Stopped by Memphis, Minneapolis, too
Back in Nashville I'll be through
So roll, muddy river, roll on

  * Refrain

I love you but just call it fate
You and I are gonna separate
You'll be here but she won't wait
So, roll, muddy river, roll on

  * Refrain
