[Verse 1]
Rio Grande, Rio Grande
I'd swim you but I can't
Late at night, flickering fire
Keeps me warm and safe from harm
Little man understands
The Indian's upper hand
Never stray
Always travel in groups of ten
[Bridge]
Cherokee trail (Trail)
Cherokee trail (Trail)
I'm ridin' you all alone
Cherokee trail (Trail)
Cherokee trail (Trail)
I can't find my way back home
[Chorus]
Oh, the great big river
Rolls on and on
Oh, the great big river
Makes my heart beat strong
Yeah, the great big river (Oh, Rio Grande, Rio Grande)
Rolls on and on
(Oh, Rio Grande, Rio Grande)
And the great big river (Oh, Rio Grande, Rio Grande)
Makes my heart beat strong
[Outro]
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on
