Trinity River

(Album: A Stolen Jewel - 2015)

Trinity river, such a dirty little river
But that don't bother me
Dirty little river gonna get me clean
Trinity river
Though, because I cry
Gon' keep me honest with everybody telling lies

Damn center evening hung everywhere
Gamblers turn their cars
And drinking on that whiskey hard
Damn center evening flows through my head
I had the sweetest dream
I was floating in the river dead

Trinity river, such a dirty little river
But that don't bother me
Dirty little river gonna get me clean
Trinity river
Though, because I cry
Gon' keep you honest when you're telling lies

In this river city
Nothing ever lasts
Beside the lonesome noose
Staring back at you
In this river city
One thing you can show
Whatever you got to give
Somebody gonna get some gold

Trinity river, such a dirty little river
But that don't bother me
Dirty little river gonna get me clean
Trinity river
Though, because I cry
Gon' keep me honest even though they telling lies

Trinity river, dirty water rising up
Trinity river, couldn't drown me fast enough
Trinity river
Though, because I cry
Gon' keep you honest even though you're telling lies
