I live by the river all my life And I don't know nothing but the lord is christ
(Chorus) Can't go home again I can't go home again East and west that highway roam Lord have mercy on my poor soul Wish my blue eyed baby home My Pretty little blue eyed baby
That rivers deep that rivers wide Devil stands an every side (Chorus)
That pretty little girl I love so well She goes to heaven lord I go to hell (Chorus)
