The Builders And The Butchers – The River Lyrics

Artist: The Builders And The Butchers
Song: The River

As I am waitin’
Time keeps a-goin’
And as I am agin’
The black water’s flowin’

Oh, that river
Please, won’t you take me home
I am ragin’
And the clouds all gather

Take my body
It’s no bother
Oh, that river
Please, won’t you take me home

I’m gonna take this bottle and drown
Same as my bloodline in a barbed wire town
Swirled in the blood of my family
Life put them young in the ground

I’m gonna take this bottle and drown
Bathed in the blood of this barbed wire crown
Swirled in the mud of my sanity
Life put me young in the ground

The sun is a-fryin’
My heads gettin’ hotter
Out in the dessert
Pray for water

Oh, that river
Nothin’ but dust and stone
My wings are flyin’
My wife and daughters

Take my body
The son and the father
Oh, that river
Please, won’t you take me home

I’m gonna take this bottle and drown
Same as my bloodline in a barbed wire town
Swirled in the blood of my family
Life put them young in the ground

I’m gonna take this bottle and drown
Bathed in the blood of this barbed wire crown
Swirled in the mud of my sanity
Life put me young in the ground

Swirled in the blood of my family
Life put me young in the ground
