Where the Old Red River Flows


        E                                           A
Well I'm dreamin' about Dixie cotton fields and whippoorwills
                          E                                     B7
Where I spent my happy childhood among the rocks and among the rills
     E                            A
I can see my dear old mommy as around the place she goes
                   E                   B7          E
To my home in Louisiana where the old Red River flows
                                E                         A
Hi-lee-oh-layoo you can hear the hippies singing soft and low
               E                     B7           E
On my farm in Louisiana where the old Red River flows

( guitar )

     E                                            A
Well the nights are bright on Broadway and the city's bright as day
                   E                                    B7
On the beach at Coney Island where the liquors make you gay
    E                               A
I'm headin' south tonight dear on the IC where she goes
                E                     B7          E
To my home in Louisiana where the old Red River flows

Hi-lee-oh-layoo...
