|
Over the river on Horseshoe Lake |
|
Where they cause my poor heart to break |
|
Cut the pigeon wing around my neck |
|
Over the river on Horseshoe Lake |
|
The night is so lonesome the day is so long |
|
Since poor old Lee Bailey caught the train and gone |
|
Left us here to sing this song |
|
The night is so lonesome the day is so long |
|
Lay side by side in Gravel Springs |
|
Did you hear the church bells ring |
|
We were singin and dancin and crying in the rain |
|
Lay side by side in Gravel Springs |
|
The night is so lonesome the day is so long |
|
Berniece and Otha Turner caught the train and gone |
|
Left us here to sing the song |
|
The night is so lonesome the day is so long |
|
You can hear the sound comin' down the highway |
|
All night long they used to play |
|
Down at Junior Kimbrough's every Sunday |
|
You can hear the sound comin' down the highway |
|
Times done been won't be no more |
