Jacob Jones - Lost On The Ohio lyrics

rate me

I was sitting on the banks of ohio

Just wasting time with my baby

And we’re thinking we might just float down the stream

And forget everything

Get lost on the ohio

Now we both got jobs and bills to pay

Honey, come on let’s go make a name for ourselves

Would you take a chance on a poor boy like me

You know good love is free

Get lost on the ohio

Me and my baby been steaming this river

3 months of soul

Yeah we’ve been down illinois

Spent some time in louieville, kentucky

With doctor james crow,

Getting lost on the ohio

Now we ain’t got no place to go

We’re gonna sit right here and roll the pole

Rivers gonna take us away

Rivers gonna take us away

On down ohio

Now it’s back home and it’s back to work

Working the back right off of my shirt

Sometimes I can still smell that river breeze flow

And I remember, the summer

And only my baby and I know

Getting lost on the ohio

Oh, oh, getting lost on the ohio.
