The River Turned Red

The River Turned Red

(Selwyn Birchwood, Selwyn Birchwood Music

Well your temper's grown hot and your heart's grown cold
Yeah, you say you don't wanna see my face no mo'
You're gonna pack your bags, you're gonna leave this town
Oh, you made up your mind and you ain't comin' back
The river turned red
The river turned red
The river turned red
Laid our love to rest

Well I'm damned if I do and I'm damned if I don't
I wonder if it's worth fixin' or it's too far broke
We had a good thang "once upon a time"
But now that crystal clear water's as red as wine
The river turned red
The river turned red
Oh, the river turned red
Laid our love to rest

Yeah, I got me a new one, she look just like you
Except without all the bull, and the bad attitude
The river turned red
The river turned red
Oh, the river turned red
Laid our love to rest
Laid our love to rest
Laid our love to rest.
