[Verse 1]
I said let it rain, let it pour
Let it rain a whole lot more
I got them deep river blues
Let the rain drive right on
Let the wave sweep along
I got them deep river blues
[Verse 2]
My old gal, she's a good old pal
She looks like a water fowl
If I get them deep river blues
Oh yeah, it's sad
And there ain't no one to cry for me
The fish all go out on a spree
When I get them deep river blues
I gotta pick you one now
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
Well, give me back my old boat
And I'm gonna sail if she'll float
I got them deep rivеr blues
I'm going back to Muscle Shoals
Times got bеtter there I'm told
I got them deep river blues
One down low for the ladies now
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 4]
Well, let it rain, let it pour
Let it rain a whole lot more
I got them deep river blues
Well, now I'm gonna say goodbye
And if I sink, just let me die
I got them deep river blues
[Outro]
I got them deep river blues, yeah
I got them deep river
Blues
[Spoken]
