Moody River Songtext
von Grayson Capps

Last Saturday evenin′, I came to the old oak tree
That stands beside the river where you were to meet me
Upon the ground your glove I found with a note addressed to me
It read "Dear love, I've done you wrong, now I must set you free"

Moody river, more deadly than the vainest night
Moody river, your muddy water took my baby′s life


I looked into the muddy water, and what did I see?
I saw a lonely, lonely man lookin' back at me
Tears in his eyes, a prayer upon his lips
He held a glove of his lost love at his fingertips

Moody river, more deadly than the vainest night
Moody river, your muddy water took my baby's life

Moody river, your muddy water took my baby′s life
