Waylon Jennings - Cindy Of New Orleans - Текст песни

Down by the river where the big boats go by

Each day you could see them as evening was nigh

They planned to be married at the first sign of spring

And Jim would take Cindy to see New Orleans

The town folks would smile as they sat there alone

Jim talked of the day he'd make Cindy his own

He saved his money to buy her a ring and take his sweet Cindy to see New Orleans

[ ac.guitar ]

One day a riverboat gambler chanced by

And captured her heart with his sweet words and lies

He told her come with me and you'll be a queen

So they left together to see New Orleans

Each day you can see Jim though years have gone by

Down by the river where the big boats go by

She wrote she'd return at the first sign of spring

He's waiting for Cindy to see New Orleans
