The Bottle Rockets - Get Down River lyrics

Live in a river town, it's pretty little It's high on the sides and it sinks in the middle If it rains too much the river comes down And fills up the low spots all over town Get down river, river get down Won't you get down river, river get down Once again you have messed up this old town So get down river, get down Now over cross town is where I want to go To see my honey but I don't know Guess I'm gonna have to row Looks like the Gulf of Mexico down by the Texaco Get down river, river get down Won't you get down river, river get down Once again you have messed up this old town So get down river, get down Well you could drown downtown when the river runs wild Been happening here ever since I was child There ain't nothing you can do to stop it Just hope for the best and mop up the rest Get down river, river get down Won't you get down river, river get down Once again you have messed up this old town So get down river, get down Ya get down river, get down Go on get down river, get down
