I got to leave this town.
It's a lonesome place.
Got to leave this town cause / It's a lonesome place.
A po', po' boy can't / Find a friendly face.
Goin' down to de river / Flowin' deep an' slow.
Goin' down to de river / Deep an' slow.
Cause there ain't no worries / Where de waters go.
I'm weary, weary, / Weary, as I can be.
Weary, weary, / Weary as can be.
This life's so weary, / 'S 'bout to overcome me.
