You keep goin' your way I'll keep goin' my way
I'll keep goin' my way, you keep rollin' your way
River, stay 'way from the door
I just got me a cabin you don't need my
you'll never need that cabin
River, stay 'way from the door
Don't you come up any higher I'm so all alone
Leave the bed and the fire that is all I own
- and you can have that phone
I ain't breakin' your heart don't you start breakin' my heart
River, stay 'way from the door
Stay 'way, get 'way, roll 'way, stay 'way
You dirty, old, muddy river, you
River, stay 'way from the door
