You keep goin' your way, I'll keep goin' my way
River, stay 'way from my door
I just got a cabin, you don't need my cabin
River, stay 'way from my door.
Don't come up any higher, I'm so all alone
Leave the bed and the fire, that is all I own
I ain't breakin' your heart, don't start breakin' my heart
River, stay 'way from my door.
I'll keep goin' my way, you keep rollin' your way
River, stay 'way from my door
I just got me a cabin, you'll never need that cabin
River, stay 'way from my door.
Don't you come up any higher, I'm so all alone
Leave the bed and the fire and you can have the phone
I ain't breakin' your heart, don't start breakin' my heart
River, stay 'way from my door.
Stay 'way, get 'way, roll 'way, stay 'way
You dirty old muddy river, you
River, stay 'way from my door...
