d a d - rock river lyrics
i was out in the wild
trying to catch some supper
and bring it home to sweet mama..
but when the pony headed back
to our home valley..
i knew i’d been gone too long:
– and i crossed the rock river the day before she died
i reached home just afer dark..
looking for mama
but she was nowhere on our land…
so i kicked the frontdoor open
saw the rope above her
and the shadow of the dirty gunman…
– and i crossed the rock river the day before she died
i chased him through arkansas
from texas to missouri…
he took me up north
from saint antoine to saint louis
he was haunted
but i had the time
i wanted him back
to the scene of the crime
– and he crossed the rock river the day before he died…
well, we reached rock river
and we reached the other side…
he looked back
kinda fraid for his life
i pulled my trigger
and i hitted him
right between the eyes
and then i roped him up to mama
to the roaches & the flys…
rock river rock river
rock river rock river
rock river
