Moody River

Moody River more deadly than the natalest night
Moody River your muddy water took my baby's life
Last Saturday evening I came to the old oak tree
That stands beside the river where you were to meet me
On the ground your glove I found with a note address to me
It read dear love I've done you wrong now I must set you free
No longer can I live with this hurt and this sin
I just couldn't tell you that girl was just a friend
Moody River more deadly...
I looked into the muddy water and what could I see
I saw a lonely lonely face just looking back at me
Tears in her eyes and the prayer on her lips
And the glove of her lost love at her fingertips
Moody River more deadly...
