Blue river, it can't be found on any map that I know But it's the place where lonely lovers all go To cry their tears, blue river It winds along a path of heartache and pain Of broken dreams from lovin' someone in vain Like I loved you, and baby I still do I held you so tight You were out of my sight I'm feelin' so low But I gotta go Blue river because you never really cared about me From now on baby that's where I'm gonna be Cryin' over you, by the river of blue
