Big River Trick Pony (Ft. Johnny Cash & Waylon Jennings)

[Intro]
Hi, we're Trick Pony

[Chorus]
Well I taught the weeping willow how to cry, cry, cry
And I showed the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky
And the tears I cried for that man, oh, they're gonna flood you Big River
Well, I'm gonna sit right here until I die

[Verse 1]
Now I met him accidentally in St. Paul, Minnesota
And it tore me up ev'ry time I heard his drawl, that Southern Drawl
Then I heard my dream was back downstream cavortin' in Davenport
And I followed you, Big River, when you called, aw yeah

[Verse 2]
Then you took me to St. Louis later on, down the river
A freighter said she's been here but she's gone, boy, she's gone
I found her trail in Memphis, but she just walked up the bluff
She raised a few eyebrows and went on down alone

[Verse 3]
Well I pulled into Naches next day down the river
But there wasn't that much to make around to stay very long
But when I left, it was rainin' so nobody saw me cry
Big River why you doin' me this way?
