River Boy
Recorded by Waylon Jennings
Written by Fred F. Carter Jr.

C F
I was born and raised on the river
G7 C
It's the only life that I know
F
People 'round here have put a name on me
G7 C
And I hear it wherever I go

F
They call me river boy river boy
G7 C
Good for nothin' river boy
F
This old world don't hold a whole lot of joy
G7 C
For a good for nothin' river boy

F
I do a lot of fishin' on the river
G7 C
To make my livin' you see
F
When I take my catch to the market place
G7 C
The people call out to me

F
And they say river boy hey river boy
G7 C
You got any fish today there river boy
F
I sell my wares but nobody cares
G7 C
About the feelin's of the river boy

F
There's a pretty girl works at the market place
G7 C
I see her there everyday
F
But every time I try to talk to her
G7 C
I can hear her papa say

F
Come away from that river boy river boy
G7 C
Nothin' but riff-raff them river boys
F
No girl of mine is gonna waste her time
G7 C
On a good for nothin' river boy

F
So I head my boat back up the river
G7 C
Back to the old fishin' place
F
I'm afraid this ol' river's gonna overflow
G7 C
From the tears a-fallin' down my face

F
I'm just a river boy river boy
G7 C
A good for nothin' river boy
F
This old world don't hold a whole lot of joy
G7 C
For a good for nothin' but a river boy

G7 C
Good for nothin' but a river boy
G7 C
Good for nothin' but a river boy
