Long Gone Lonesome Blues (BBC Radio 1, Saturday Night Live, 1987) - The Proclaimers

I went down to the river to

Watch the fish swim by

But I got to the river so

Lonesome I wanted to die

So I jumped in the river oh

But the river was dry

She's long gone now

I'm lonesome blue

I had me a woman

Who couldn't be true

She made me lose my money

And she made me blue

Now I need a woman

That I can lean on

But my leanin' post just

Got up and gone

She's long gone now

I'm lonesome blue Yeah

I'm gonna find me a river

One that's cold as ice

When I find me that river

I'm gonna pay the price

I'm goin' down in it three times

And I'm only comin' up twice

Because she's long gone

Now I'm lonesome blue

She told me on Sunday

She was checkin' me out

Along about Monday

She was nowhere about

And here it is Tuesday

I ain't had no news

I got the gone but not

Forgotten blues

She's long gone now

I'm lonesome blue

Yeah Yeah Yeah

She's long gone now

I'mlonesome blue
