Boat’s Up the River

The boat's up the river and it won't come down
Then I believe to my soul Lord that I'm waterbound

If the river was whiskey and I was a duck
Lord I'd dive to the bottom and I'd never come up

Going down the river, take my rocking chair
If that blues overtakes me, rock away from here

The boat's up the river and it won't come down
Then I believe to my soul Lord that I'm waterbound

I'll go down to the river, and I'll set right down
If those blues don't leave me, jump in the river and drown

The boat's up the river and it won't come down
Then I believe to my soul Lord that I'm waterbound
