"Goin' Down To The River"
(Mississippi Fred McDowell)

I'm goin' down to the river
I'm gonna sit down on the ground, yeah
I'm goin' down to the river
Lord, I'm gonna sit down on the ground, oh yeah
I'm gonna let the waves and the water
Let the waves and the water wash my trouble down

I'm goin' down to the river
I'm gonna take my ole rockin' chair
I'm goin' down to the river
And I'm gonna take my ole rockin' chair, ole rockin' chair
I'm gonna [?] [?]
Do the blues ever stop by here

Go ahead, Robbie

I'm goin' down that river
I'm gonna take that right hand road
I'm goin' down that river
Lord, I'm gonna take that right hand road
Lord, I ain't gon' stop walkin'
Till I'm in sweet mama's arms
Till I'm in mama's arms

I'm gonna play a little bit now

Sun rose this mornin', baby
And Lord, I was layin' down on my floor
Lord, the sun rose this mornin'
And I was layin' down on my floor
I was layin' down on my floor
I didn't have no woman to love me
Even no place to go
I got no place to go
Oh no, no I don't
