Lyrics Harlem River Blues

Lord I'm goin' uptown to the Harlem River to drown
Dirty water gonna cover me over
I'm not gonna make a sound
I'm on a roll, mama I gotta go
Gotta get there while I still can
Troubled days are behind me now and I know they're gonna let me in
When you see me walkin' up the FDR just a-singin' and a-clappin' my hands
Tell my mama I love her
Tell my father I tried
Give my money to my baby to spend
'Cos Lord I'm goin' uptown to the Harlem River to drown
Dirty water gonna cover me over and I'm not gonna make a sound
Good times come and they go
Even a good man'll break
He'll let his troubles bury him whole even though he knows what's at stake
So I'm takin' no chances
Carryin' over while I'm still good in His grace
And I'm no fool mama
I know the difference between temptin' and choosin' my fate
So Lord I'm goin' uptown to the Harlem River to drown
Dirty water gonna cover me over and I'm not gonna make a sound
Lord I'm goin' uptown to the Harlem River to drown
Dirty water gonna cover me over and I'm not gonna make a sound
Lord I'm goin' uptown to the Harlem River to drown
Dirty water gonna cover me over and I'm not gonna make a sound
