The Lonesome River (feat. Ralph Stanley) - with Ralph Stanley

I sit here alone on the banks of the river
 The lonesome wind blows and the water rolls high
 I can hear a voice calling out there in the darkness
 But I sit here alone, too lonesome to cry
 Oh, the water rolls high on the river at midnight
 I sit on the shore, to grieve and to cry
 The woman I love, she left me this morning
 With no one to love or kiss me goodnight
 ♪
 We met there one night on the banks of the river
 Sat there holding hands and making our vows
 That we'd never part and be happy together
 But a new love she's found, she's gone from me now
 Oh, the water rolls high on the river at midnight
 I sit on the shore, to grieve and to cry
 The woman I love, she left me this morning
 With no one to love or kiss me goodnight
