Deep River
Moon hangs low
Time goes slow
This Train's bound for Tupelo
Give me something
To make the pain go
Mama's near
Daddy's far
He went speeding
In a stolen car
I looked back
He was gone in the dark
Take me floating down a deep river
Let the rain fall softly on me
Oh Oh, heal me in the still water
Oh Oh, deep river
The Water's high
The Gator's blind
Drags the dead back to life
Take my hand Mama on the other side
Take me dreaming down a deep river
Let the cypress trees shelter me
Oh Oh, heal me in the still water
Oh Oh, deep river
I went to the water
To the blue bayou
I went to the water looking for you
Time
Like a snake in the grass
Your eyes
Watching from the trees
Drifting past
Oh Oh, heal me in the still water
Oh Oh, deep river
Oh Oh, heal me in the still water
Oh Oh, deep river
Mama
Time goes slow
This Train's bound for Tupelo
Give me something
To make the pain go
Mama's near
Daddy's far
He went speeding
In a stolen car
I looked back
He was gone in the dark
Take me floating down a deep river
Let the rain fall softly on me
Oh Oh, heal me in the still water
Oh Oh, deep river
The Water's high
The Gator's blind
Drags the dead back to life
Take my hand Mama on the other side
Take me dreaming down a deep river
Let the cypress trees shelter me
Oh Oh, heal me in the still water
Oh Oh, deep river
I went to the water
To the blue bayou
I went to the water looking for you
Time
Like a snake in the grass
Your eyes
Watching from the trees
Drifting past
Oh Oh, heal me in the still water
Oh Oh, deep river
Oh Oh, heal me in the still water
Oh Oh, deep river
Mama
