Go lean on a river
you old master trouble giver
You're just another mother fake
so go lean over on a lake
When your baby says she loves you
never do you any wrong
Then she puts herself above you
you just sing to her this song
Go lean on a river
you old master trouble giver
You're just another mother fake
so go lean over on a lake
Who's that man saying he wants me
to walk in line, do as I am told?
I'll do what my mind says to me;
Let's all tell him where to go.
Go lean on a river
you old master trouble giver
You're just another mother fake
so go lean over on a lake.
