Lyrics River Boy (Overdubbed Version) - Willie Nelson
I
was
born
and
raised
on
the
river
It′s
the
only
life
that
I
know
People
'round
here
have
put
a
name
on
me
And
I
hear
it
wherever
I
go
They
call
me
river
boy,
river
boy
Good
for
nothin′
river
boy
This
old
world
don't
hold
a
whole
lot
of
joy
When
you're
nothin′
but
a
river
boy
I
do
a
lot
of
fishin′
on
the
river
To
make
my
livin'
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
feelin′s
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
Nothin'
but
riff-raff,
them
river
boys
No
girl
of
mine
is
gonna
waste
her
time
On
a
good
for
nothin′
river
boy
So
I
head
my
boat
back
up
the
river
Back
to
my
old
fishin'
place
I'm
afraid
this
ol′
river′s
gonna
overflow
From
the
tears
a-fallin'
down
my
face
I′m
nothin'
but
a
river
boy,
river
boy
A
good
for
nothin′
river
boy
This
old
world
don't
hold
a
whole
lot
of
joy
When
you′re
nothin'
but
a
river
boy
River
boy,
river
boy
A
good
for
nothin'
river
boy
River
boy
