America - Don’t Cross The River lyrics

There's a little girl out lying on her own

She's got a broken heart

She's not the kind to take you down for long

She knows and plays it smart

And if she's comin' she's shown no mark

She's heard no whistle blowin' from the dark

She feels like leavin' and she don't know why

Without no bridges she's trapped, so I sigh

Don't cross the river if you can't swin the tide

Don't try denying livin' on the other side

All your life you were on your own

And if you want you can ride my train

And soon forget the reason that you're leavin'

You'll lose yourself and then some time

Maybe even save yourself some grievin'

Don't cross the river if you can't swin the tide

Don't try denying livin' on the other side

All your life you were on your own
