grateful dead - big river (live at great american music hall, sf, 8/13/75) lyrics
[chorus]
well, i taught that weeping willow how to cry cry cry
taught the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky
tears i cried for that woman are going to flood you, big river
and i’m going to sit right here until i die
[verse 1]
well, i met her accidentally in st. paul, minnesota
she tore me up every time i heard her drawl, that southern drawl
well, i heard my dream went back downstream, cavorting in davenport
and i follow you big river when you called
[chorus]
taught that weeping willow how to cry cry cry
taught the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky
tears i cried for that woman are going to flood you, big river
and i’m going to sit right here until i die
[instrumental break]
[verse 2]
well, i followed her down to st. louie, later on down the river
trader said she’s been here, but she’s gone, boy, she’s gone
and i followed her down to memphis
but she just walked off the bus
she raised a few eyebrows and she went on down alone
[chorus]
taught that weeping willow how to cry cry cry
taught the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky
tears i cried for that woman are going to flood you, big river
i’m going to sit right here until i die
[instrumental break]
[verse 3]
well, i’ve gotten on down to baton rouge, river queen roll on
take that woman down to new orleans, new orleans
i give up, ’cause i’ve had enough
followed my blues on down to the gulf
she loves you big river more than me
[chorus]
taught that weeping willow how to cry cry cry
taught the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky
tears i cried for that woman are going to flood you, big river
and i’m going to sit right here until i die
[instrumental break]
[chorus]
i taught that weeping willow how to cry cry cry
taught the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky
tears i cried for that woman are going to flood you, big river
and i’m going to sit right here until i die
and i’m going to sit right here until i die
listen, i’m going to sit right here until i die
