Now I taught the weepin` willow how to cry
And I showed the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky
And the tears that I cried for that woman are gonna flood you, Big River
Then I`m gonna sit right here until I die
I met her accidentally in St. Paul, Minnesota
And it tore me up ev`ry time I heard her drawl, Southern drawl
Then I heard my dream was back downstream cavortin` in Davenport
And I followed you, Big River, when you called
Then you took me to St. Louis later on down the river
A freighter said she`s been here but she`s gone, boy, she`s gone
I found her trail in Memphis, but she just walked up the block
She raised a few eyebrows and then she went on down alone
Now, won`t you batter down by Baton Rouge, River Queen, roll it on
Take that woman on down to New Orleans, New Orleans
Go on, I`ve had enough, dump my blues down in the gulf
She loves you, Big River, more than me
