She left me cold and hungry by the riverside
She left me so downhearted there and I really cried
About mistakes I´d made and it´s a crying shame
I can´t believ the way they start all over again

She left me cold and hungry by the riverside
Without a word or a note, so I couldn´t find
A reason for to stay where I wanted to stay
There didn´t seem to me to be anyway

I got away from the city from the riverside
And it was oh, such a pity ´cos I really tried
It didn´t make me feel how I wanted to feel
I turned around to be where I wanted to be
I got away from the city from the riverside
And it was all nitty gritty there, however I tried
I didn´t wait to feel how I knew I would feel
I had to turn around, ´cos I wouldn´t be found

Don´t blame me or point your finger at me
I´m not blind and I see, don´t point your finger at me

Don´t you do it, don´t you do it to me
Don´t point your finger my way
Don´t put the blame all my way

She found me so light-hearted by the riverside
She didn´t cry or try and I didn´t mind
´Cos I just had to stay wher I wanted to stay
And the mistakes I made, I made them anyway

She left me cold and hungry by the riverside
And it was oh, such a pity ´cos I really tried
It didn´t make me feel how I wanted to feel
I turned around to be where I wanted to be

Don´t blame me or point your finger at me
I´m not blind and I see, don´t point your finger at me
Don´t you do it, don´t you do it to me

Don´t point your finger my way
Don´t put the blame all my way
She left me cold and hungry by the riverside
And it was oh, such a pity ´cos I really tried
It didn´t make me feel how I wanted to feel
I turned around to be where I wanted to be
She left me cold and hungry by the riverside
Riverside, riverside
