lirik lagu willie nelson – river boy
i was born and raised on the river
it’s the only life that i know
people ’round here have put a name on me
and i hear it wherever i go
they call me river boy, river boy
good for nothin’ river boy
this old world don’t hold a whole lot of joy
when you’re nothin’ but a river boy
i do a lot of fishin’ on the river
to make my livin’ you see
when i take my catch to the market place
the people call out to me
and they say, river boy, hey river boy
you got any fish today there, river boy
i sell my ware, but n-body cares
about the feelin’s of the river boy
there’s a pretty girl works at the market place
i see her there everyday
but when i try to talk to her
i can hear her papa say
come away from that river boy, he’s a river boy
nothin’ but riff-raff, them river boys
no girl of mine is gonna waste her time
on a good for nothin’ river boy
so i head my boat back up the river
back to my old fishin’ place
i’m afraid this ol’ river’s gonna overflow
from the tears a-fallin’ down my face
i’m nothin’ but a river boy, river boy
a good for nothin’ river boy
this old world don’t hold a whole lot of joy
when you’re nothin’ but a river boy
river boy, river boy
a good for nothin’ river boy
river boy [fade]
