(Hank Williams)
Lost on the river, dark is the night
Just like the blind, prayin' for sight
Driftin' along, heart filled with strife
I'm lost on the river, the river of life.
Once dear, I thought I knew the way
But that was before, ole sad yesterday
Words that you told me, cut like a knife
I'm lost on the river, the river of life.
Out on this river, where sorrow creeps
Thinking of you and how my heart weeps
Tomorrow you'll be another man's wife
And I'm lost on the river, the river of life...
