A blues standard if ever there was one. I think the drums and the riff give it a different feel to other versions and that it rolls along well. Hope you agree!
lyrics
If the river was whiskey
and I was a diving duck
If the river was whiskey
and I was a diving duck
I would swim to the bottom, and drink my way back up
The sun gonna shine
on my back door someday
The sun gonna shine
on my back door someday
A big wind gonna come up
And blow my blues away
If the river was whiskey
and I was a diving duck
If the river was whiskey
and I was a diving duck
I would swim to the bottom,
and I’d drink my way back up
