There was a club across the river
Across the bridge to Arkansas
The people there
They didn't care about the lawI met this girl she made me shiver
When she danced all through the night
But when sister Charlie sang
He made everything rightShe came up every night
From across the ridge
Now I gotta go back across the Mississippi-Arkansas bridge
One night I swear I saw an angel
She would laugh, dance, and sing
She came to hear the music
Sonny Boy and B.B. KingI left for drinks and she kept dancing
I left her all alone
But when I came back
She was gone, gone, goneShe came up every night
From across the ridge
Now I gotta go back across the Mississippi-Arkansas bridgeThere was a club across the river
Across the bridge to Arkansas
She came up every night
From across the ridge
Now I gotta go back across the Mississippi-Arkansas bridge
She came up every night
From across the ridge
Now I gotta go back across the Mississippi-Arkansas bridge
