Please tell me crimson river
Is there a place where I
Should search your troubled waters
Please don't lie
It's been raining for three days
And the waters are now high
I can't find no crossing
I'm afraid I'll drown tonight
Wicked river, you don't care
You just follow your own course
While I weep upon your shore
You show me no remorse
While the spirits that you took
Are frowning for me, it seems
All waters have the color of drowning
Evenings when I used to get back
Home again
I'd meet my love in this boat
On your wave
And d***ed be the moment
When my ring went down below
Then he smiled and said
I'll get it back for you
Wicked river, you don't care
You just follow your own course
While I weep upon your shore
You show me no remorse
While the spirits that you took
Are frowning for me, it seems
Now I wish that every river
Would just stop its flow
But I fear that this waters
Just won't let us go
Not now, not tomorrow, not until
We're all down there below
Wicked river, you don't care
You just follow your own course
While I weep upon your shore
You show me no remorse
While the spirits that you took
Are frowning for me, it seems
All waters have the color of drowning
Is there a place where I
Should search your troubled waters
Please don't lie
It's been raining for three days
And the waters are now high
I can't find no crossing
I'm afraid I'll drown tonight
Wicked river, you don't care
You just follow your own course
While I weep upon your shore
You show me no remorse
While the spirits that you took
Are frowning for me, it seems
All waters have the color of drowning
Evenings when I used to get back
Home again
I'd meet my love in this boat
On your wave
