Paroles de Mississippi river blues

Broonzy, big bill
Mississippi river,
Is so long, deep and wide,
I can see my good gal on that other side.
You know i cried, and i called,
But i could not make her hear,
I'm gonna catch that boat baby, steam on over there.
Big boat is up the river,
Lord, stuck on a bank of sand,
I'll never see my baby, i'll never make that land.
Ain't it hard, to love someone,
When they are so far from you;
I am so lonesome, i don't know what to do.
