You come across the James River
For a needle and a spoon
Would you come across the James River
To be my woman again
To be my woman again
You come across the old lee bridge
For a dollar fifty in change
Would you come across the James River
For this heart of gold
For this heart of gold
You go and work for Ms. Kitty
For a decent rate of pay
Would you come across the James (River)
To be my woman again
To be my woman again
You keep a pistol in your left boot
A brush and comb in your purse
Would you come across the James (River)
To be my woman again
To be my woman again
