Now I taught the weeping willow.. how to cry...
And I showed the clouds how to cover..
up a clear blue sky...
And the tears I cried for that woman
are gonna flood you Big River...
Then I'm gonna sit right here until I die~...

I met her accidentally in St. Paul {Minnesota}
And it tore me up every time
I heard her drawl, Southern drawl
Then I heard my dream was back downstream
cavortin' in Davenport...
And I followed you, Big River, when you called...

Then you took me to St. Louis later on {down the river}
A freighter said she's been here but she's gone, boy, she's gone
I found her trail in Memphis, but she just walked up the bluff
Raised a few eyebrows and went on down alone...

Now, won't you batter down by Baton Rouge..
River Queen, roll it on
Take that woman on down to
New Orleans, New Orleans
Go on, I've had enough
dump my blues down in the gulf
She loves you, Big River, more than me...

Now I taught the weeping willow.. how to cry...
And I showed the clouds how to cover..
up a clear blue sky...
And the tears I cried for that woman
are gonna flood you Big River...
Then I'm gonna sit right here until I die~...
