Glossary - Bitter Branch lyrics

I've seen you roll I've seen you die I've seen you washed out I've seen you dry I took a drink When our water was gone I felt your kiss When we knew it was wrong But you're never at a loss for words And the ones you say you don't take back Bitter Branch I've seen your kind Bear away wood 'til Southern veins Run red with mud When you flood You're clear as gin Your heart's too cold To wash away sin You're never at a loss for words And the ones you say you don't take back Bitter Branch You've got a soul That only means well Don't know the truth In the stories you tell Pillar to post Just send it down the line 'Cause the work ain't done While the sun still shines You're never at a loss for words And the ones you say you don't take back Bitter Branch
