River Boy

River Boy (Overdubbed Version) - Willie Nelson (威利·納爾遜)

I was born and raised on the river

It's the only life that I know

People around here have put a name on me

And I hear it wherever I go

They call me river boy river boy

Good for nothing river boy

This old world don't hold a whole lot of joy

When you're nothing but a river boy

I do a lot of fishing on the river

To make my living you see

When I take my catch to the market place

The people call out to me

And they say river boy hey river boy

You got any fish today there river boy

I sell my ware but nobody cares

About the feelings of the river boy

There's a pretty girl works at the market place

I see her there everyday

But when I try to talk to her

I can hear her papa say

Come away from that river boy he's a river boy

Nothing but riff ruff them river boys

No girl of mine is gonna waste her time

On a good for nothing river boy

So I head my boat back up the river

Back to my old fishing place

I'm afraid this ol river's gonna overflow

From the tears a falling down my face

I'm nothing but a river boy river boy

A good for nothing river boy

This old world don't hold a whole lot of joy

When you're nothing but a river boy

River boy river boy

A good for nothing river boy
