Lyrics
Let it rain, let it pour, let it rain a whole lot more
'Cause I got them deep river blues
Let that old river rise and fall and let the big waves make a wall
'Cause I got them deep river blues, alright son

My old gal's a good little pal, she walks just like a waterfall
When I get them deep river blues
Ain't no one to cry for me, 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
Yes, I got them deep river blues
I'm goin' back to muscle shoals, time's getting better there I'm told
'Cause I got them deep river blues

Well, if my boat sinks with me, I'm gonna go down, don't you see
Yes, I got them deep river blues
And now I'm gonna say goodbye, if I sink then just let me die
'Cause I got them deep river blues, get them all

Let it rain, let it pour, let it rain a whole lot more
'Cause I got them deep river blues
And let that old river rise and fall, let them big waves make a wall
'Cause I got them deep river blues
