Woman Across The River - Little Milton

Composed by：Bettye Jean Crutcher/Allen Jones

Across the river a good woman cried

All because a foolish man had lied

She gave up all she had to show

How much she cared

But he told so many lies

Now another man is over there

That woman across the river

That woman across the river she was mine

What's so on of time she was mine

Untill the way I got alone that

I had childreen you belive what happen

Listen to me

Then the man they came running

Came running from near and far

How could I be such a fool

I'll never never never never never know

But the man he's got to know

He's a lucky so and so

That woman across the river

That woman across the river

She was mine

She used be mine

Oh what a shame but who can I blame

Oh i met her

I met her the other day about a week ago

This is what hurt me so bad

You know what she said to me

She said nelton I don't even want to talk to you

'Cause I don't love you any more

Oh

That woman across the river

That woman across the river

Sweet woman across the river

She used to be mine

Ohh

She used to be all mine

Oh

What a fool I was been

If I could Just get back in there

Oh I would be different man

I can relose what I lost

Untill it was too late too late too late

I tell you it's too late too late too late

Oh baby please please please

Please give me one more chance

Would you let me oh please

Let me come on my chance

Sweet woman across the river

Ohh
