[G] I ain't gonna [C] ride no rail or hitchhike down no [G] highway

I'm gonna let this muddy water just wash away my [C] blues.

Gonna take a lot of river to wash these blues a-[C]way.

Well, I [C] wish I was tug boat pushing and pulling them [G] barges along
Moving on the water with a heart made of iron and [C] steel
There wouldn't be no women that could ever take my loving and [G] do me wrong
I could work all day with nothing in the world to [C] feel.
