I'm going down to the river
gonna take me my rocking chair
Going down to the river
gonna take me my rocking chair
And if those blues don't leave me
Gonna rock on away from here
If you want me woman
please don't act so shy
If you want me woman
please don't pass me by
I love those sideways glances
Your shoulder and your thigh
I see inside your eyes, the Baba's Sai
The reasons why I love you
So if you're still busy hiding
What it is you've got
And if you're frightened of losing
What you like a lot
You may be cruising backwards
While thinking that you're not
I see inside your eyes, the Baba Sais
The reasons why I love you
So if you don't get the picture
You won't know what I feel
If you don't get the picture
Then you won't have a depth of field
You may be going someplace
Someplace you've already been
