Story Behind the Song
When I was a kid we used to take float trips down Spoon River.
Lyrics
Slippin' down the stream in a wooden skiff,past ol'hangin'rock now let it drift,there's no better thing on a summer's day just let that muddy river roll you blues away,lyin'on your back lookin' at the sky,watchin'the clouds and treetops passin'by,pull my guitar from a plastic bag I play that Spoon River Rag.Feels like a flathead on my hook, hedgeballs bobbin' in the babblin'brook,is that a 90 lb. catfish or just another mangey snag?all I know's that Spoon River Rag.white-tail deer stoppin' for a drink,green turtle floatin' then begin to sink,red-tail hawk in a burr oak tree,bluejays squackin'and a scoldin'me,got coon tracks down by the riffle in the sand,pool full of crappie 'bout the size'o'my hand, jenny wrens and sparrows play a game of tag,that's the Spoon River Rag
