River Runs Deep

Well, the river runs deep

And the water is cold as ice

The river runs deep

And the water is cold as ice

I go down there every chance I get

It's where my baby she met her death

And the river runs deep

And the water's cold as ice

Ain't no woman

Gonna make a fool out of me

Ain't no woman

Gonna make a fool out of me

Running 'round, that's what they said

She's at the bottom of the river dead

And the river runs deep

And the water's cold as ice

No cheating woman

Gonna get a good man down

No cheating woman

Gonna get a good man down

Running 'round like a silly fool

You're gonna end up at the bottom of the pool

And the river runs deep

And the water's cold as ice
