Reverend Horton Heat - River Ran Dry lyrics

Lord, won't you tell me why the river ran dry? Please, Lord, tell me, won't you just say why? Used to catch catfish right over there Right over there 'fore the river ran bare Won't you tell me why? Luck is not my friend Went to church sometimes Tried hard not to sin Lord, won't you tell me why the river ran dry? Please Lord tell me, won't you just say why? Lord, won't you tell me why my baby had to go? Please, Lord, tell me, won't you let me know? Used to say she loved me every night and everyday Why'd she have to pack it up and move away? Won't you tell me why? She just got annoyed I had to quit my job Temporarily unemployed Lord, won't you tell me why my baby had to go? Please, Lord, tell me, won't you let me know? Lord, won't you tell me why the river ran dry? Please, Lord, tell me, won't you just say why? Used to catch catfish right over there Right over there 'fore the river ran bare Won't you tell me why? Luck is not my friend Went to church sometimes Tried hard not to sin Lord, will you tell me why the river ran dry? Please, Lord, tell me, won't you just say why?
