Roll On New River

歌詞

Got my fishin' pole and some Beanie-weenies Pocket knife and a ball of string The water's cold but the fish don't know it The river's deep and the river's long How it shines in the morning sun I'm glad you let me come along to the river Roll on New River Roll on forever Carry me with you Roll on The moon comes out on the path to home Window's open and the radio on Sing along with Bill Monroe together Kentucky's not so far to go From these Virginia hills I love Where the water still runs north in the New River Roll on New River Roll on forever Carry me with you Roll on Past the farms and fields of corn Past these hills that I adore Up a winding corridor you travel Men have tried but never tamed you I still wonder why they named an old, old place "new" Like they did New River Roll on New River Roll on forever Carry me with you Roll on
