The Sweet Lowdown - River's Deep lyrics

River's deep, river's wide River cuts down the mountain side It might take a time or two Cross the river to be with you Old man by the riverside His heart don't beat I think he's died You can feel the cold of his hand Flies are buzzing around his head What do you do with a man that's dead But pull him pull him in to land River's deep, river's wide River cuts down the mountain side It might take a time or two Cross the river to be with you I can swim the river wide Long as the sun don't make it dry And then I'll try to wade I can wade the river dry Then at least I'll know I tried Now honey my love can fade River's deep, river's wide River cuts down the mountain side It might take a time or two Cross the river to be with you
