[Verse 1]
If the river were whiskey
And I was a divin'
I was a divin'
I was a diving duck
If the river was whiskey baby
And I was a diving duck
Oh, I would dive on the bottom
Baby and I'd never come up

[Verse 2]
You know the sun gonna shine in
My back door
In my lonesome back
You know in my
Lonesome back door
Someday
The sun gonna shine in
My lonesome back door someday
You know the wind gonna rise up
And blow my natural blues away

[Verse 3]
Let me be your sidetrack, baby
Honey 'till your mainline
'Till your natural main
'Till your natural mainline comes
Let me be your sidetrack
Baby, 'till your natural mainline comes
I'm a dough rollin' daddy
Roll you from sun to sun
[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 4]
Put your arms around me, baby
Like the circle 'round the sun
Won't you do me pretty mama
Like your easy rider done
Won't you put your arms around me baby
Honey, like the circle 'round the rising sun
Won't you do me pretty baby
Like my easy rider done

[Verse 5]
If the river were whiskey
And I was a divin'
Baby, I was a diving
I was a diving duck
If the river was whiskey baby
And I was a diving duck
Oh, I'd dive on the bottom
Baby and I'd never come up

[Outro]
I'd dive on them bottom
Baby and I'd never come up
