Gonna Take A Lot Of River

C G7 I ain't gonna ride no rail or hitchhike down no highway C I aint' going nowhere feeling the way I do G7 Because my baby's long gone and nothings going my way C I'm gonna let this muddy water just wash away my blues G7 Gonna take a lot of river to keep this broken heart afloat C Gonna take a lot of river running all the live long day G7 Gonna take the Mississippi the Monongahela and the Ohio C Gonna take a lot of river to wash these blues away G7 Well I wish I was tug boat pushing and pulling them barges along C Moving on the water with a heart made of iron and steel There wouldn't be no woman that could ever G7 Take my loving and do me wrong C I could work all day with nothing in the world to feel G7 Gonna take a lot of river to keep this broken heart afloat C Gonna take a lot of river running all the live long day G7 Gonna take the Mississippi the Monongahela and the Ohio C Gonna take a lot of river to wash these blues away F G#m Is she in New Orleans is she a Cajun queen A# C I wonder what she's doing now F G# But if I know her she's got rings and furs A# C Struggling along somehow G7 Gonna take a lot of river to keep this broken heart afloat C Gonna take a lot of river running all the live long day G7 Gonna take the Mississippi the Monongahela and the Ohio C Gonna take a lot of river to wash these blues away
