Let it rain, let it pour,
Let it rain a whole lot more,
＇Cause I got them deep river blues.
Let the rain drive right on,
Let the waves sweep along,
＇Cause I got them deep river blues.
My old gal＇s a good old pal,
And she looks like a water fowl,
When I get them deep river blues.
Ain＇t no one to cry for me,
And the fish all go out on a spree
When I get them deep river blues.
Give me back my old boat,
I＇m gonna sail if she＇ll float,
＇Cause I got them deep river blues,
I＇m goin＇ back to Muscle Shoals,
Times are better there I＇m told,
Cause I got them deep river blues.
Let it rain, let it pour,
Let it rain a whole lot more,
＇Cause I got them deep river blues,
Let the rain drive right on,
Let the waves sweep along,
＇Cause I got them deep river blues.
If my boat sinks with me.
I＇ll go down, don＇t you see,
＇Cause I got them deep river blues,
Now I＇m gonna say goodbye,
And if I sink, just let me die,
＇Cause I got them deep river blues.
Let it rain, let it pour,
Let it rain a whole lot more,
＇Cause I got them deep river blues,
Let the rain drive right on,
Let the waves sweep along,
＇Cause I got them deep river blues
