Guy Clark - Water Under the Bridge lyrics

rate me

They baptized me one fine day

Down at the river's edge

All my sins are washed away

Like water under the bridge

I had a little girl and her eyes were blue

She lived just over the ridge

Her love ran deep and her love ran true

Like water under the bridge

Sailin' away on a paper boat

As far as I can go

All the way to New Orleans

And the Gulf of Mexico

River run clear river run clean

River run rough sometime

River run wild and it run serene

Just like a friend of mine

Tie my troubles in a gunnysack

And throw em' over the edge

Sailin' away and I won't be back

Like water under the bridge

You might be saint you might be sinner

You might be Billy The Kid

You might crap out or roll a winner

It's water under the bridge
