The Oak Ridge Boys - Gonna Take a Lot of RiverLyrics

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