The .357 String Band - Black river blues lyrics

Black river blues My cheatin' heart's been torn in two I'd love to stay with you awhile But I've got to burn one thousand black river miles Before I sleep, before I rest ‘Cause I've got two loves burnin' holes inside my chest And it's something you know I gotta do Before I lay me down to sleep here beside you When I get home… When I get home… When I get home… There's a two-lane highway in my mind My heart's divided by white lines So what am I supposed to do When the lane I love is the lane takes me further from you? And that black river's callin' my name And if I don't go I know I'll go insane And I'll walk a thousand miles in these worn out shoes And then I'll lay me down to sleep here beside you When I get home… When I get home… When I get home…
