James River Blues

I just heard the awful news

I could steer around the rocks

But they ＇ re bustin down the docks

James River Blues

That train came on through

And the works gotten slow

Now where ＇ s a boat man to go

I think i ＇ ll flow on down

To richmond town

They don ＇ t need us anymore

Haulin freight from shore to shore

That big iron hauls much more

Than we ever could before

I ＇ ve seen good men goin wrong

Ive seen bad ones get it right

As that river rolls along

I ＇ ll be steppin out tonight

On 120870,-39)the cool flow

Floatin down

Down below

The bridge to the waters edge

From the ridge to the ledge

From the hills to the sea

I ＇ ll become a memory

James River Blues
