The River Runs Low

Hornsby Bruce

Way It Is

The River Runs Low

The rain held back again

Haven't felt a drop since you went away

Outside of town, the hills are brown

I guess way out there you'd call 'em golden

Lines outside the welfare store

The clock is stopped at the bank next door

They yelled like hell when the boys left home

Now just like you they're all gone


CHORUS

The river runs low tonight

Eyes are closed on the waterline

The river runs low tonight

And you're always drifting through my mind

The river runs low tonight

And you're always drifting through my mind

The river runs low tonight

And nobody waits for the tide to rise

But I'm gonna wait till you make


The river run high


The old man's gettin' on

Keeps the morning paper in his overcoat

It keeps him warm in the cold storm

And he told me today I look a little lonely

Up in the air they're heading south

The sky is light to the west of town

With a little cash I could get around

You know I'd come out there and find you


CHORUS


Up in the air they're heading south

The sky is light to the west of town

With a little cash I could get around

You know I'd come out there and find you


CHORUS
