lyrics

C’mon Darlin’ take my hand
I think its time we put to bed
All the lonesome guilty chains
Best leave’em on the riverbank
Leave’em on the riverbank

Ain’t no crops to grow around here
We’ve sown plenty, we’ve shed our tears
Oh the clouds are back its getting rough
Let’s sing Liza Jane and cuddle up
Sing Liza Jane and cuddle up

Down the river, the long long river,
to Pontchartrain or Toulouse
Got nothing planned, ‘except being ur man
and writing sweet billets-doux
Down the river, the Mississippi river,
sipping on southern shine
And holding ur had to a far better land,
I’ll love ya til river runs dry
I’m gonna love ya til the river runs dry

You can bask in the warm summer rain
I’ll catch lightning bugs along the way
There’s a whole lot more for us on downstream
My jole blon you’ll always be
My jole blon you’ll always be

Down the river, the long long river,
to Pontchartrain or Toulouse
Got nothing planned, ‘except being ur man
and writing sweet billets-doux
Down the river, the Mississippi river,
sipping on southern shine
And holding ur had to a far better land,
I’ll love ya til river runs dry
I’m gonna love ya til the river runs dry

Oh the rivers wide, Oh the rivers deep
Oh the rivers wide, Oh the rivers deep

Down the river, the long long river,
to Pontchartrain or Toulouse
Got nothing planned, ‘except being ur man
and writing sweet billets-doux
Down the river, the Mississippi river,
sipping on southern shine
And holding ur had to a far better land,
I’ll love ya til river runs dry
I’m gonna love ya til the river runs dry
I’m gonna love ya til the river runs dry

Down the river, the long long river,
down the river we go
Down the river, the long long river,
down the river we go
Down the river, the long long river
