Lyrics

Tell the world
That I'm all through with it
No more will I moan
Burn my home
What can I do with it?
Can't live all alone
No use wastin' time
I just know that I'm
Ready for the river
The shivery river
The river that goes down to the sea
Want to drown my trouble
And leave just a bubble
To indicate what used to be me
Made my will
Wrote some notes
Goin' to keep on walkin' 'til my straw hat floates
I'm ready for the river
The shivery river
So, get the river ready for me
Written by: Emerson Gill & His Bamboo Garden Orchestra
