Blue River

[Verse 1]
Old man go to the river
To drop his bale of woes
He could go if he wanted to
It's just a boat to row, you know
Listen to me now

[Chorus]
Blue river keep right on rollin' (blue river keep on rollin')
All along the shoreline (all along the shoreline)
Keep us safe from the deep and the dark (keep us safe from the deep)
'Cause we don't want to stray too far

[Verse 2]
Spent the day with my old dog Mo
Down an old dirt road
And what he's thinking, Lord, I don't know
But for him bet the time must go so slow
Don't you know

[Chorus]
Blue river keep right on rollin' (blue river keep on rollin')
All along the shoreline (all along the shoreline)
Keep us safe from the deep and the dark (keep us safe from the deep)
'Cause we don't want to stray too far

[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
Young Rob stands with his ax in his hand
Believin that the crops are in
Fire wood stacked ten by ten
For the wife, the folks, the kids
All of the kin, and a friend
Listen to me now

[Chorus]
Blue river keep right on rollin' (blue river keep on rollin')
All along the shoreline (all along the shoreline)
Keep us safe from the deep and the dark (keep us safe from the deep)
'Cause we don't want to stray too far

[Outro]
No, we don't want to stray too far
