Ohio River Boat Song-Will Oldham

When it's time from work to go, and in my boat I row. 'Cross the muddy Ohio when the evening light is falling And I looked towards Floyd's Knobs where the afterglories flow And I dream on two bright eyes with a merry mouth below. She's my beauteous Catarina, she's my joy and sorrow too. Though I know she is untrue, ah, but I cannot live without her. For my heart's a boat in tow, and I'd give the world to know. If she means to let me go, as I sing the whole day through. Catarina your lovely hair, has more beauty I declare Than all the tresses there from Smoketown to Oldham County. Be they black, red, gold or brown, let them hang to lenghts below. They mean not as much to me, as a melting flake of snow. And her dance is like the gleam, of the sunlight on the stream. And the screeching bluejays seem, to form her name when screaming. But my heart is full of woe, for last night she made me go. And the tears begin to flow, as I sing the whole day through.
