Should've listened to my mom,
She always knew best.
But I'm a little goddam old for that now,
At least I guess
So I walked down the river,
Where I found my one true love.
She must've floated on down from the mountain top,
From above.
But the water rose so quickly,
The heartless fury of the flood.
And it swept my woman off her feet
Into the mud.
So I returned to river
Filled my pockets up with stones.
I'm gonna rest under there on the water,
With her bones.
Oh, but I don't sink for nothing,
My body only floats.
I take the current all out to the ocean
And carry on
Should've listened to my mom,
I know she always knew best.
But I'm a little goddam old for that now,
At least I guess
