Norbert Putnam - Blue River lyrics

[Verse 1] Old man go to the river To drop his bale of woes He could go if he wanted to It's just a boat to row, you know Listen to me now [Chorus] Blue river keep right on rollin' (blue river keep on rollin') All along the shoreline (all along the shoreline) Keep us safe from the deep and the dark (keep us safe from the deep) 'Cause we don't want to stray too far [Verse 2] Spent the day with my old dog Mo Down an old dirt road And what he's thinking, Lord, I don't know But for him bet the time must go so slow Don't you know [Chorus] Blue river keep right on rollin' (blue river keep on rollin') All along the shoreline (all along the shoreline) Keep us safe from the deep and the dark (keep us safe from the deep) 'Cause we don't want to stray too far [Instrumental] [Verse 3] Young Rob 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 All of the kin, and a friend Listen to me now [Chorus] Blue river keep right on rollin' (blue river keep on rollin') All along the shoreline (all along the shoreline) Keep us safe from the deep and the dark (keep us safe from the deep) 'Cause we don't want to stray too far [Outro] No, we don't want to stray too far
