Where the Old Red River Flows (Acetate version 206) (2019 - Remaster) Songtext
von Hank Williams

We gonna go down about Louisiana
Louisiana I said
Where The Old Red River Flows, let′s go

I'm dreaming tonight of Dixie cotton fields and Whippoorwills
Where I used to live and wander through the rocks and through the rivs
I can see my old dear mammy while around the place she goes
On my farm in Louisiana where the old Red River flows

Haa-dee-dee-o-low-hoo-hoo
Wow-woo-hoo-hoo-hoo

You can hear those darkies crooning soft and low
And the twilight in the evening, so low, so soft and low

Woo, woo-hoo-hoo-hoo
On my farm in Louisiana where the old Red River flows


Oh, the lights tonight on Broadway electric lights theybright as day
On the beach at Coney Island where the laughter makes you gay
But I′m going back tonight love on the icy wind she goes
To my farm in Louisiana where the old Red River flows

Haa-dee-dee-o-low-hoo
Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo

You can hear those darkies crooning soft and low
And the twilight in the evening, so low, so soft and low

Woo, woo-hoo-hoo-hoo
On my farm in Louisiana where the old Red River flows

Alright, you got him
Where the old Red River flows
And right here right next to where the Camlin river flows
Is cousin Luigi
Uh, Buck and, watch out now, watch out, be careful, called you Luigi, Louis
He's got some, uh, message here
From our good sponsor
Mother's Best Biscuit Makers
Okay? That′s right
