the red river riot - a river that won’t run right lyrics

Loading...

prepare her body
burn the dress that she once wore
take care when you brush her hair
not a strand shall touch the floor
everyone is waiting
a wake to end the years
and if it’s h+ll for anyone else
there’d be no need for my tears
why, oh why
why oh why

they cry and hug me, such a shameful exercise
and when they’re done i’ll still be the one
with the grief that waits outside
i hear them whisper
“she’s a river river that won’t run right”

like a rose that n0body chose
still stinging with her light

i tried to warn her, but a girl makes up her mind
and as i age the h+ll likes to change
now i’m doomed i’m always right
i hear them call her
a river that won’t run right
oh the woe when we told her no
guess i taught her one thing right

why
did you get into his car that
night
i remember all the storms like
last thing she said “i wish you were dead”
and if only the words would’ve left me instead, no
why you had to leave that night

slowly her body descends to its reward
i feel her leave like so many leaves
and i watch her face obscure
one final whisper
a river that won’t run right

oh the woe when we told her no
guess i taught her one thing right

why
did you get into his car that
night
i remember all the storms so
why
did you get into his car that
night
i remember all the storms like
last thing she said i wish you we dead
and if only the words would’ve left me instead
why
why’d you have to leave that night
