Baby's gone and I don't know why
She let out this morning
Like a rusty shot in a hollow sky
She left me without warning
Sooner than the dogs could bark
Faster than the sun rose
Down to the banks on an old mule car
She took a flatboat 'cross the shallow
Left me in my tears to drown
She left a baby daughter
Now the river's wide and deep and brown
She's crossing muddy waters
Tobacco standing in the fields
Be rotten, come November
And a bitter heart will not reveal
A spring that love remembers
When that sweet brown girl of mine
Hair, black eyes are raven
We broke the bread and drank the wine
From a jug that she'd been saving
Left me in my tears to drown
She left a baby daughter
Now the river's wide and deep and brown
And she's crossing muddy waters
Baby's crying and the daylight's gone
That big oak tree is groaning
In a rush of wind and a river of song
I can hear my true love moaning
Crying for her baby child
Or crying for her husband
Crying for that rivers wild
To take her from her loved ones
Left me in my tears to drown
She left a baby daughter
Now the river's wide and deep and brown
And she's crossing muddy waters
Now the river's wide and deep and brown
And she's crossing muddy waters
Перевод
Ребенок ушел, и я не знаю почему
Она ушла этим утром
Как ржавый выстрел в пустое небо
Она бросила меня без предупреждения
Раньше, чем могли собаки кора
Быстрее, чем взошло солнце
Вниз к берегу на старом муле
Она села на плоскодонку и пересекла мелководье
Оставила меня тонуть в слезах
Она ушла маленькая дочка
Теперь река широкая, глубокая и бурая
Она пересекает мутные воды
Табак стоит в полях
Будь гнилым, наступит ноябрь
И горькое сердце не покажется
Весна, которую помнит любовь
Когда эта милая смуглая моя девочка
Волосы, черные глаза цвета воронова крыла
Мы преломили хлеб и выпили вино
Из кувшина, который она' Я спасала
Оставила меня тонуть в слезах
Она оставила маленькую дочку
Теперь река широкая, глубокая и коричневая
И она пересекает мутные воды
Детская плачет, и дневной свет погас
Этот большой дуб стонет
В порыве ветра и реке песен
Я слышу стоны моей настоящей любви
Плачет по своему маленькому ребенку
Или плачет по мужу
Плачет по диким рекам
Чтобы забрать ее у ее близких
Оставила меня тонуть в слезах
Она оставила маленькую дочку
Теперь река широкая, глубокая и коричневая
И она пересекает мутную воду
Теперь река широкая, глубокая и коричневая
И она пересекает мутную воду
