Letra de Long Gone Lonesome Blues (BBC Radio 1, Saturday Night Live, 1987)
I went down to the river to watch the fish swim by But I got to the river so lonesome I wanted to die So, I jumped in the river, oh, but the river was dryShe's long gone Now I'm lonesome blueI had me a woman who couldn't be true She made me lose my money and she made me blue Now I need a woman that I can lean on But my leanin' post just got up and goneShe's long gone Now I'm lonesome blue, yeahI'm gonna find me a river, one that's cold as ice When I find me that river, I'm gonna pay the price I'm goin' down in it three times and I'm only comin' up twiceBecause she's long gone Now I'm lonesome blueShe told me on Sunday she was checkin' me out Along about Monday she was nowhere about And here it is Tuesday, I ain't had no news I got the gone but not forgotten bluesShe's long gone Now I'm lonesome blue Yeah Yeah YeahShe's long gone Now I'm lonesome blue
