the david c. travelin' medicine show - floatin' down the river كلمات أغنية

i went down to the river to catch myself a fish
when i saw old roy and betty engagin’ in a kiss
when i came upon them there, in my secret fishin’ spot
i put a bullet in his head and two more in his heart

so now he’s floatin’ down the river
sweet betty on his mind
makin’ his way down the cherokee
goin’ past the old gold mine
floatin’ down the river and after all that’s said
he’ll wash up in lincoln with a bullet in his head

i met betty at the fair of 1923
we do_si_doed the night away, we married the next week
old roy was a friend of mine, he grew up in my town
i couldn’t seem to get a girl but they never turned roy down

but now he’s floatin’ down the river
sweet betty on his mind
makin’ his way down the cherokee
goin’ past the old gold mine
floatin’ down the river and after all that’s said
he’ll wash up in lincoln with a bullet in his head

roll, boys!
alright
[instrumental break]

some say roy just disappeared, some say he ran away
but me and betty know the truth, behind that fateful day
we don’t miss old roy at all, we didn’t even cry
but that’s just it, i admit, it was fun to watch him die

’cause now he’s floatin’ down the river
sweet betty on his mind
makin’ his way down the cherokee
goin’ past the old gold mine
floatin’ down the river and after all that’s said
he’ll wash up in lincoln with a bullet in his head

come on!
[?]

[instrumental break]

there are some things a man can take and other things i can’t
i couldn’t take the sight of betty in the arms of another man
but oh, sweet betty, did you mean it when you said “i do”?
let this happen one more time and you’ll be floatin’, too

floatin’ down the river
sweet betty on his mind
makin’ his way down the cherokee
goin’ past the old gold mine
floatin’ down the river and after all that’s said
he’ll wash up in lincoln with a bullet in his head
