River, Stay 'Way from My Door - Red Foley

You keep going your way I’ll keep going my way

River stay away from my door

All I got is a cabin you don’t need my cabin

River stay away from my door.

Don’t come up any higher I’m so all alone

Leave my bed and my fire that’s all I own

I ain’t breakin' your heart so don’t start breaking my heart

Oh, river stay away from my door.

Lord, ain’t I been faithful, ain’t I worked

Ain’t I toiled in the sweat and sun

Lord, ain’t I come to you, ain’t I come to you and thank you

Thank you for all the good things you’ve done.

Listen Lord, I know you made that river

But won’t you please try to remember that you made me

Oh Lord, can’t you hear me pray to you

Make that river make that river hear my plea.

No, I ain’t breaking your heart so don’t start breaking my heart

Oh river, stay away from my door…
