It's been a Saturday everyday and a whole month of Sundays

And I get sadder every day he's gone

Horseshoe Bend old friend that's been so long since we saw him

When he laid me down upon your banks and made this girl a woman

As the Virgin Mother sang us a song

Horseshoe Bend he's just like you old river he'll keep rolling

And I'll keep praying someday he'll come home

It's been a Saturday everyday...

Here comes Frank again old friend and there ain't no sign of him

But just because I can't see him don't mean I forgot him

And I'll keep praying someday he'll come home

It's been a Saturday everyday...

Horseshoe Bend old friend that's been...

It's been a Saturday everyday...
