I was just the age of sixteen when I first went on the drive
F C G
After six months hard labour at home I did arrive
F C Am
I courted with a pretty girl t'was her caused me to roam
C Am Em Am
Now I'm just a river driver and I'm far away from home
C
I'll eat when I am hungry and I'll drink when I am dry
F C G
Get drunk whenever I'm ready get sober by and by
F C G
And if this river don't drown me it's down I'll mean to roam
C F Am C
For I'm a river driver and I'm far away from home
I'll build a lonesome castle upon some mountain high
Where she can sit and view me as I go passing by
Where she can sit and view me as I go marching on
For I'm a river driver and I'm far away from home
I'll eat when I am hungry and I'll drink when I am dry
Get drunk whenever I'm ready get sober by and by
And if this river don't drown me it's down I'll mean to roam
For I'm a river driver and I'm far away from home
