Across the river a good woman cried All because a foolish man had lied She gave up everything, everything that money could buy But the man told so many lies, theres another man over there That woman across the river, sweet woman across the river she was mine Word got around that he had jilted her Men came running from near and far Shouldve never been so foolish guess Ill never But the man thats got her now, hes a lucky soandso That woman across the river, sweet woman across the river she was mine I remember the other day, about a week ago She said I dont even want to talk to you cause I dont love you anymore. That woman across the river, sweet woman across the river she was mine Across the river a good woman cried All because a foolish man had lied She gave up everything, tried to keep him satisfied But the man told so many lies, theres another man over there That woman across the river That woman across the river That woman across the river, sweet woman across the river she was mine
