I'm going to the river Gonna go overboard and drown I'm going to the river Gonna jump overboard and drown Because the gal I love She just have left this town When she left me I bowed my head and cried When she left me I bowed my head and cried I would be the one to cry Well, if you see my mama Tell her goodbye for me If you see my mama Tell her goodbye for me I'm tired of living Living in misery
