Cash<br />Recorded 11/12/57; Number 4 - Country Chart<br /><br />Now I taught the weeping willow how to cry,<br />And I showed the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky.<br />And the tears that I cried for that woman are gonna flood you Big River.<br />Then I&#039;m gonna sit right here until I die.<br />( )<br />I met her accidentally in St. Paul (Minnesota).<br />And it tore me up every time I heard her drawl, Southern drawl.<br />Then I heard my dream was back Downstream cavortin&#039; in Davenport,<br />And I followed you, Big River, when you called.<br /><br />Then you took me to St. Louis later on (down the river).<br />A freighter said she&#039;s been here <br />But she&#039;s gone, boy, she&#039;s gone.<br />I found her trail in Memphis, <br />But she just walked up the block.<br />She raised a few eyebrows and then she went on down alone.<br /><br />Now, won&#039;t you batter down by Baton Rouge, <br />River Queen, roll it on.<br />Take that woman on down to New Orleans, New Orleans.<br />Go on, I&#039;ve had enough; <br />Dump my blues down in the gulf.<br />She loves you, Big River, more than me.<br /><br />Now I taught the weeping willow how to cry,<br />And I showed the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky.<br />And the tears that I cried for that woman are gonna flood you Big River.<br />Then I&#039;m gonna sit right here until I die.<br /><br />
