Blue River - Eric Andersen

Old man go to the river

To wash his bale of woes

He could go if he wanted to

It's just a boat

To row you know

Listen to me

Blue River keep right on rollin'

All along the shore line

Keep us safe from the deep and the dark

We don't want to stray too far

Spent the day with my old dog Mo

Walking down an old dirt road

What he's thinking about well I don't know

But for him I bet the time must go so slow

He's just a dog you know

Listen to me

Blue River keep right on rollin'

All along the shore line

Keep us safe from the deep and the dark

We don't want to stray too far

Young man stands

With his ax in his hand

Believin' that the crops are in

Fire wood stacked ten by ten

For the wife the folks the kids

And all of the kin and a friend

Listen to me

Blue River keep right on rollin'

All along the shore line

(All along the shore line)

Keep us safe from the deep and the dark

We don't want to stray too far

Don't want to stray too far

Don't want to stray too far
