Trinity River

(álbum: The Man From Waco - 2022)

Trinity River, such a dirty little river
But that don't bother me
Dirty little river sure to get me clean
Trinity River
And it flow because I cry
Sure to keep me honest with everybody telling lies

Damp scent of evening hung everywhere
And gamblers turn they cards
Drinking on that whiskey hard
The damp scent of evening flows all 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 sure to get me clean
Trinity River
And it flow because I cry
Sure to keep you honest, even though you're telling lies

In this river city
Nothing ever lasts
Beside the lonesome blues
Steady staring back at you

In this river city
Of one thing you can be sure
No matter what you got to give
Believe me you gonna give some more

Trinity River, such a dirty little river
But that don't bother me
Dirty little river sure to wash me clean
Trinity River
And it flow because I cry
Sure to keep me honest 'cause everybody telling lies

Trinity River, muddy water rising up
Trinity River, could never drown me fast enough
Trinity River
And it flow because I cry
Sure to keep you honest even though you're selling lies
