Riders In The Sky - King Of The River Lyrics
Artist: Riders In The Sky
Album: Miscellaneous
Genre: Blues
- Songwriters: Tom Blackburn, George E Bruns
I'm Mike Fink
King of the river
Listen to the thunder
Hear the winds roar
Hurricane's a-coming
Board up the door
Load up the cannon
Call up the law
Worstest calamity
That folks never saw
Girls run and hide
Brave men shiver
I'm Mike Fink
King of the river
Oh, he's a ring-tail roarer
And a tough old alligator
Oh, he's a bull-nosed bully
And a real depopulator
Oh, what a deep divin catfish
That always come up dry
He's gonna live forever
Born too mean to die
Dug the whole Ohio
With my big toe
Filled her up with water
Made the critter flow
Stomped out the valley
Scraped up the ridge
Wade across the river
'Cause I don't trust no bridge
And then an earthquake
Make mountains quiver
I'm Mike Fink
King of the river
Oh he can uptalk a lawyer
[Incomprehensible]
Oh, he can upchop thunder
And her son say that he can
Oh, what a fightin' devil
He'll spit right in your eye
He's gonna live forever
Born too mean to die
(Born too mean to die)
