Manatee River Songtext
von Duane Betts

Mile above the coast
Come a time when you′ll be on your own
It's a world full of trouble
You′ll be far away from home
And your blood falls
In the mud of the Manatee River
I see myself in you
With the sweetness of your mother


There's a high road
Don't get too high
You might fall
There′s a high road
Don′t get too high
You will fall

Water's muddy
Heat of the summer
Bottling change
Gonna lay you low
Waiting for the cops to forget my name

There′s a high road
Don't get too high
You might fall
There′s a high road
Don't get too high
You will fall
