Deep River Blues (live at Cornell University and Town Hall / 1970)

Let it rain, let it pour

Let it rain, a whole lot more

'Cause I got them deep river blues

Let the rain drive right on

Let the wave sweep along

'Cause I got them deep river blues

My old girl is a good old pal

And she looks like a waterfowl

When I get them deep river blues

There ain't no one to cry for me

And the fish all go out on a spree

When I get them deep river blues

Give me back my old boat

I'm gonna sail if she'll float

'Cause I got them deep river blues

I'm goin' back to Muscle Shoals

Times are better there I'm told

'Cause I got them deep river blues

Let it rain, let it pour

And let it rain a whole lot more

'Cause I got them deep river blues

Let the rain drive right on

Let the wave sweep along

'Cause I got them deep river blues

If my boat sinks with me

I'll go down, don't you see?

'Cause I got them deep river blues

Now I'm gonna say goodbye

And if I sink, just let me die

'Cause I got them deep river blues

Let it rain, let it pour

Let it rain a whole lot more

'Cause I got them deep river blues

Let the rain drive right on

Let the wave sweep along

'Cause I got them deep river blues
