Oh Joe Hannah

(álbum: #16 - 1963)

Oh Joe Hannah, don't you work so long
Oh Joe Hannah, don't you work so long
Oh Joe Hannah, don't you work so long
Don't you know the river is wide?
Don't you know the mountain is high?

Thirteen years I've been working on the river
Thirteen years since you've been gone
Thirteen years and you'd better go home
Don't you know the river is wide?
Don't you know the mountain is high? Oh

Oh Joe Hannah, don't you work so long
Oh Joe Hannah, don't you work so long
Oh Joe Hannah, don't you work so long
Don't you know the river is wide?
Don't you know the mountain is high?

Thirteen years I've been working on the river
Thirteen years that ain't so long
Thirteen years and you'd better go home
Don't you know the river is wide?
Don't you know the mountain is high? Oh

Oh Joe Hannah, don't you work so long
Oh Joe Hannah, don't you work so long
Oh Joe Hannah, don't you work so long
Don't you know the river is wide?
Don't you know the mountain is high?

Thirteen years I've been working on the river
Thirteen years I've been alone
Thirteen years and you'd better go home
Don't you know the river is wide?
Don't you know the mountain is high? Oh

Oh Joe Hannah, don't you work so long
Oh Joe Hannah, don't you work so long
Oh Joe Hannah, don't you work so long
Don't you know the river is wide?
Don't you know the mountain is high?
Oh Joe Hannah
