River Town River Town I can't settle down long as my woman's on the prow

They're peepin' out from behind shades the lovin' how my woman's made

I've got to get her out of this River Town



She caught the eye of another man in this River Town

Cause the fever in the man made his blood run hot in this River Town

Made him crave her like so many river men have done

And I can't stand the way he looks at her that son of a gun

River Town River Town...



Makin' a livin' ain't an easy thing in this River Town

Well I'm breakin' my back and ruinin' my hands in this River Town

But I love that woman and there ain't another man gonna take her and run around

If he passes another remark at her I'll cut him down

River Town River Town...
