<< Moody River >>

CHORUS
|
Moody river, more deadly than the vainest knife
|
Moody river, your muddy water took my baby's life
|
|
Last Saturday evenin' came to the old oak tree
|
It stands beside the river where you were to meet me
|
On the ground your glove I found
|
With a note addressed to me
|
It read "Dear love, I've done you wrong"
|
"Now I must set you free"
|
"No longer can I live with this hurt and this sin"
|
"I just couldn't tell you that guy was just a friend"
|
|
CHORUS
|
|
I looked into the muddy water and what could I see?
|
I saw a lonely, lonely face just lookin' back at me
|
Tears in his eyes and a prayer on his lips
|
And the glove of his lost love at his fingertips
|
|
CHORUS
