Roger in Baltimore Lyr Req: Red River (Sonny Terry & Brownie McGhee) (7) Red River 19 Apr 98

I'm looking for the lyrics to a blues called Red River. It was sung by Sonny Terry and is essentially the same tune (and similar verses) as 'Key to the Highway' that is on the DT database. The first verse is something like:
    How long, how long, does that blood red river run.
    It runs from my back door straight to the risin' sun.
