Bridge Washed Out — текст песни (Kenny Vernon)

When I awoke this a morning the rain was a pouring down
I was gonna wed the little river girl just over the bridge across town
Now I`m runnin` up and down the river and my nerves are drivin` me wild
And the bridge washed out and I can`t swim and my baby`s on the other side
Well now rain oh rain stop a fallin` dark clouds hurry from the sky
The preacher and my bride are waitin` and the weddin` bells are startin` to chime
I can`t kiss and hold her and it`s drivin` me out of my mind
Cause the bridge washed out and I can`t swim and my baby`s on the other side
[ guitar ]
Now I got one foot in the river the other foot solid on the ground
I try to swim that ragin` river but I know if I try I`m gonna drown
There`s not a boat around me they walked on out with the tide
And the bridge washed out and I can`t swim and my baby`s on the other side
Well now rain oh rain...
The bridge washed out and I can`t swim and my baby`s on the other side
