Sold Down the River

I’ve been sold sold sold, on down the river
Drifting away from you.
I’ve been sold sold sold, on down the river,
Gotta get back, no matter what I do.
They said that you’ve been foolin' around
Saw you with somebody new
Feel like I’m drowning down, down, down
What else can a poor boy do
I’ve been sold sold sold, on down the river
Drifting away from you.
I’ve been sold sold sold, on down the river,
Gotta get back, no matter what I do.
Just got your letter, they lied to me
You heart has always been true.
I’m headed up to Raleigh on a fast, fast train
Look out, I’m rollin' on through.
I’ve been sold sold sold, on down the river
Drifting away from you.
I’ve been sold sold sold, on down the river,
Gotta get back, no matter what I do.
