lyrics

Oh, sweet water! Sweet water keep carrying me
My lovers as gone as this rivers is long
Lord, get me right back to Tennessee

My eyes are heavy but I just can't get to sleep
Cause my heart is achin', I ain't seen my baby in weeks
Jasmine in the air, is as thick as her golden hair
Her smile, so pristine, as I drift through this lavender dream

Oh, sweet water! Sweet water keep carrying me
Cause my lovers as gone as this river is long
Lord, get me right back of Tennessee

The shores a closin', this river's song been sung
My baby's awaitin', my Memphis bell's been wrung
These days of pining, they seem forever long
Now at the hotel, my baby's up and gone

Oh, sweet water! Sweet water keep carrying me
Cause my lovers as gone as this river is long
Lord, get me right out of Tennessee
