River Stay 'way From My Door
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You keep goin' your way,
I'll keep goin' my way,
River, stay 'way from my door.
I just got a cabin,
You don't need my cabin,
River, stay 'way from my door.
Don't come up any higher,
I'm so all alone,
Leave my bed and my fire
That's all I own.
I ain't breakin' your heart,
Don't start breakin' my heart,
River, stay 'way from my door.
