Up Green River, rollin' like a log
I went up Green River, rollin' like a log
I went up Green River, rollin' like...
Like a log
Well, I thought I heard that Marion whistle blow
Thought I heard that Marion whistle blow
And it blow'd just like my baby
When he's gettin on' board
People, I'm goin' where the Southern cross the Dog
Goin' where the Southern cross the dog
And when I get to that river
You know that I'll be rollin'...
Just like a log...yes, I will now
It was late one evening, everything was still (so still)
Late one Friday evenin' - and everything was still
I could swear I saw my baby
People way up on that lonesome hill
Oh, Lord...
People, I'm goin' away now, goin' away to stay
Goin' away, baby - goin' away to stay
But you just keep there in the back of your mind, sugar
Well, I know that your trouble surely gonna come someday
Oh, Lord...
Your trouble gonna come someday
