[1] Ridin' on that new river train
Ridin' on that new river [5] train
That [1] same old train that [4] brought me here
Is [5] soon gonna carry me away [1]

Darlin' you can't love but one
Darlin' you can't love but one
You can't love but one and have any fun
Oh darlin' you can't love but one

Now honey remember what you said
Darlin' remember what you said
Remember that you said you'd rather see me dead
Than leavin' on that new river train

Now darlin' you can't love two
Honey you can't love two
You can't love two and your little heart be true
Oh darlin' you can't love two

Darlin' the time won't be long
Honey the time won't be long lord lord
No it ain't a-gonna be long 'til I'm gonna be gone
Gonna be leavin' on that new river train
