I think we need to have a copy of the lyrics without embedded chords. This copy will be more easily found with a search engine.


DEEP FORK RIVER BLUES
(Tom Paxton)

Now, the Deep Fork is a muddy river
Near my home, near my home.
The Deep Fork is a muddy river
Near my home, near my home.

And the Deep Fork is in Oklahoma
Near my home, near my home
The Deep Fork is in Oklahoma
Near my home, near my home.

I can hear hounds baying on the river
Near my home, near my home,
And I'll surely have a rabbit for my dinner
Near my home, near my home.

- INSTRUMENTAL VERSE -

When the sun goes down, a man gets awful lonesome
For his home, for his home.
When the sun goes down, a man gets awful lonesome
For his home, for his home.

And the Deep Fork is a muddy river
Near my home, near my home.
The Deep Fork is a muddy river
Near my home, near my home.
