Riverside Blues

I went down to the river, slept thirty-one days and nights

I went down to the river, slept thirty-one days and nights

I'm lookin' for my good gal, come back and treat me right

I ain't got me nobody carry my troubles to

I ain't got nobody carry my troubles to

I tell you peoples, I don't know what to do

Jeffersonville train, Lord, backs up in your yard

Jeffersonville train, backs up in your yard

I'm goin' to see my baby if I have to ride the rods

I went away last summer, got back in the fall

Went away last summer, got back in that fall

My mind hadn't changed, I wouldn't have come back at all

You can press my jumper and my overhall

You can press my jumper and my overhall

I'm goin' to the station, meet the Cannonball
