[Verse 1]
Over the river
On Horseshoe Lake
Where they caused
My poor heart to break
Cut the pigeon wing
Around my neck
Over the river
On Horseshoe Lake
[Chorus]
The night is so lonesome
And day is so long
Since poor, lonely baby
Caught the train and gone
Left us here
To sing along
And the night is so lonesome
Day is so long
[Verse 2]
They're side-by-side
In Gravel Springs
Did you hear
The church bells ring?
We were singin' and dancin'
And cryin' in the rain
They side-by-side
In Gravel Springs
[Chorus]
The night is so lonesome
The day is so long
Bernice and [?] Turner
Caught the train and gone
Left us here
To sing along
The night is so lonesome
Day is so long
[Verse 3]
You could hear the sound
Comin' down the highway
All night long
They used to play
Down in Turner Kimble's
Every Sunday
Could hear the sound
Comin' down the highway
[Outro]
Time's done been
There won't be no more
Time's done been
Won't be no more
Time's done been
Won't be no more
Time's done been
Won't be no more
