[Verse 1]
There was a club across the river
Across the bridge to Arkansas
The people there
They didn’t care about the law

I met this girl she made me shiver
When she danced all through the night
But when sister Charlie sang
He made everything right

[Chorus]
She came up every night
From across the ridge
Now I gotta go back across the Mississippi-Arkansas bridge

[Verse 2]
One night I swear I saw an angel
She would laugh, dance, and sing
She came to hear the music
Sonny Boy and B.B. King

I left for drinks and she kept dancing
I left her all alone
But when I came back
She was gone, gone, gone
