DmYou come across Ddim the F James River C
Dm A-for a Ddim needle, and a F spoon C
Dm But would you Ddim come across the F James River C
To be my woman again G
To be my woman again

Dm-G-Dm-G

You come across the old lee bridge
A-For a dollar fifty in change
But would you come across the James River
for this heart of gold?
For this heart of gold?

BREAK

Dm-G-Dm-G

You go to work for Ms. Kitty
For a decent rate of pay
But would you come across the James River
To be my woman again?
To be my woman again?

BREAK

Dm-G-Dm-G

You keep a pistol in your left boot
A brush and comb in your purse
But would you come across the James River
To be my woman again?
To be my woman again?

ENDING:
