River’s Deep Lyrics by The Sweet Lowdown

The Sweet Lowdown

0

River’s deep, river’s wide
River cuts down the mountain side
It might take a time or two
Cross the river to be with you
Old man by the riverside
His heart don’t beat I think he’s died
You can feel the cold of his hand
Flies are buzzing around his head
What do you do with a man that’s dead
But pull him pull him in to land
River’s deep, river’s wide
River cuts down the mountain side
It might take a time or two
Cross the river to be with you
I can swim the river wide
Long as the sun don’t make it dry
And then I’ll try to wade
I can wade the river dry
Then at least I’ll know I tried
Now honey my love can fade
River’s deep, river’s wide
River cuts down the mountain side
It might take a time or two
Cross the river to be with you
