SoldDownTheRiver

There ain’t no place, where I’d rather be
Can’t think of a woman, that satisfied me
More than you, in this lonley town
Down by the old bay

There ain’t no ocean, that I didn’t sail
Never a storm, that my ship would fail
And I know, when I see you again
I’ll meet you down by the old bay

Will I be sold down the river
Or take back my place by your fire
Sold down the river
Did you get carried away by desire
In these winters that passed by

There ain’t no story, that I didn’t hear
Never a battle, that my heart would fear
But I feel, that I should take some rest
Down by the old bay

Will I be sold down the river
Or take back my place by your fire
Sold down the river
Did you get carried away by desire
In these winters that passed by
