about

A cover by Anthony Garza

One of my favorite songs by the late great king of Honky Tonk, Hank Williams Sr.

lyrics

I went down to the river
to watch the fish swim by
but I got to the river so lonesome I wanted to cry oh lord
and then I jumped in the river but the doggone river was dry

She's long gone and I'm lonesome blue

I had me a woman, couldn't be true
married me for my money and she made me blue
a man needs a woman that he can lean on
but my leaning post has done left and gone

She's long gone and I'm lonesome blue

I'm gonna find me a river one that's cold as ice
and when I find me that river lord I'm gonna pay the price oh lord
I'm going down in it three times but lord I'm only coming up twice

She's long gone and I'm lonesome blue.

She told me on Sunday she was checking me out
along about Monday she was nowhere about
here it is Tuesday, ain't had no news
I've got them long but not forgotten blues

She's long gone and I'm lonesome blue.
