Bobby Long - THE RIVER IS LONG lyrics

I walked home empty with a sultry dream I tossed a coin onto the icy pond I tripped and fell upon the icy curve The road is short but the river's long I drew my eye onto a woman's smile Told her man that I was running her down We told his friend that I was speaking out, So they put me into the ground On and on they will go Destroying me cruelly Taking off all my my clothes Way back in the day Turn me on upside down Screaming in laughter I was screaming in pain I didn't want to be there They found me covered in it head to toe, wild and rived like some bound up ghost And any day I will lose the fight, But it would hurt my family the most She was heavy and her voice were grim A shaven head-case with a smile turned foul Who didn't know that they were bad and wrong The road is short but the river's long On and on they will go Destroying me cruelly Taken off all my my clothes, way back in the day Turn me on upside down, Screaming in anger I was screaming in pain I didn't want to be there There turns themselves like some western film there's another highway that they cant walk down, a sailing over on a misty gorge The road is short but the rivers long
