Roger McGuinn - The Brazos River lyrics

The cool Angelina runs lofty and gliding The crooked Colorado runs weaving and winding The Red River runs rusty, the Wichita clear But Down by the Brazos, I courted my dear I la lie lee lee lee give me your hand I la lie lee lee lee give me your hand I la lie lee lee lee give me your hand There's many a river that waters the land She hugged me and she kissed me And she called me her dandy The Brazos is muddy, And sometimes quick sandy She hugged me and she kissed me And called me her own But down by the Brazos She left me alone Now the girls of them rivers They're plump and they're pretty The Supine and the Sulfur Have many a beauty I may wander the rivers And many a shore, But down by the Brazos I'll wander no more I la lie lee lee lee give me your hand I la lie lee lee lee give me your hand I la lie lee lee lee give me your hand There's many a river that waters the land There's many a river that waters the land
