Whiskey Myers - On The River lyrics

Lord Jebediah, won’t you let me down Promise me a place from here much better [?] them tires intact [?] Won’t you give it all up for me? I’m sad to see the time of day Been a lone cabin down there by the river Raise your kids the best there is And not worry ’bout your head and quiver Yeah, this place ain’t saving grace You can’t buy more peace than it pays There’s war paint, more blood than there ain’t And there’s smoke down there on the river Old Jebediah’s serving two more years And he’s landing a job with the man selling off landslides [?] Build that home for marriage Now the time of day cut wolves away Made a deal with the [?] It all came down to [?] [?] ones who need it Yeah, this place ain’t saving grace You can’t buy more peace than it pays There’s war paint, more blood than there ain’t And there’s smoke down there on the river Oh, the river Yeah, this place ain’t saving grace You can’t buy more peace than it pays There’s war paint, more blood than there ain’t And there’s smoke down there on the river On the river On the river
