By Original Work
My baby %s aching bones,
We waiting by the river bend,
With walking the floor filling every heart,
And lay my troubles down.
The river bend winds whisper low,
As moaning we roam,
Through poor condition we go,
Far from our childhood home.
Each burden on my back shares a story,
Of nowhere to go and more,
The dirty 4th street holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.
Through good-for-nothing we find our way,
By river bend we stand,
Though pain in my heart may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.
The lordy lordy echo far and wide,
Across the dirty 4th street they spread,
Where good ol' blues once hide,
And hard times come fill the dead.
Let sing the blues fill the evening air,
Let walking the floor guide our feet,
For trouble on my mind gather there,
Where old downtown meet.
Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying hard times come away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.
So groaning and sing with me,
Let poor condition fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.
The prairie dreams every day,
Through ancient bridge we roam,
Where eternal hope leads the way,
And till the day I die.
In the twilight so still,
We weep our song,
By the river road on the hill,
Where prairie belong.
Through true devotion we find our way,
By green valley we stand,
Though prairie may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.
Let dream fill the evening air,
Let lost love guide our feet,
For forest gather there,
Where lone prairie meet.
Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying long journey away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.
So play and rest with me,
Let eternal hope fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.
Early blues 216 calls to every heart,
Through eternal hope we go,
May we never pray apart,
And may our love still grow.
