Waterbound Songtext
von Riley Baugus

I went out late one night
The moon and the stars were shining bright
A storm come up and the trees come down
Tell you boys I was water bound


Water bound on a stranger′s shore
River rising to my door
Carried my home to the fields below
I'm water bound, nowhere to go
Carved my name in an old barn wall
For no one to know I was there at all
Stables dry on a winter′s night
If you turn your head you can see the light

A black cat a-crawling on an old boxcar
It's a rusty door and a falling star
Ain't got a dime in my nation sack
I′m water bound and I can′t get back
Yes I'm gone and I won′t be back
You don't believe me, count my tracks
The river′s long and the river's wide
I′ll meet you boys on the other side


So say my name and don't forget
That the water still ain't got me yet
Ain′t nothing but I′m bound to roam
Water bound and I can't get home
