THE WALKABOUTS - RIVER BLOOD lyrics

rate me

Highwater is everywhere, highwater is telling me to go

There's poison in the course it runs, there's ashes from the factory on the hill

Watch it all fall down

From the mountain to the ground

Watch it all say no

River Blood

Oh, River Blood

I've always found that river

Test my grip and then I'm sure you will believe that I cannot let go

I live on fruit I have preserved in mason jars beneath the basement floor

Watch it all fall down

From the mountain to the ground

Watch it all say no

River Blood

Oh, River Blood

I've always found that river

These walls are covered in black bullet holes and each one has a christian name

One's my father, one's my son, I stick my fingers in to prove they're real

Watch it all fall down

From the mountain to the ground

Watch it all say no

River Blood

Oh, River Blood

I've always found that river
