Big River Ballad

I'm at the mouth of a big, big river, and I'm surely gonna drown
I guess I'd like to taste that river, and how far I'll go down
And now I see it in your eyes, you know where I've been
And where I haven't, it's just a habit, it meant nothing at all

And you'll find me at the bottom
Of a raging river, or a bottle
And grace will lead, I will follow
And faithfully, 'til tomorrow
Lord knows I'm a liar

I'm at the mouth of a big, big river, and I know that it's sink or swim
But I'm drunk enough to test that river, and how deep I'll get in
And guess I used to have control, now I don't know
What I'm thinking it's just the drinking, it meant nothing at all

And you'll find me at the bottom
Of a raging river, or a bottle
And grace will lead, I will follow
And faithfully, 'til tomorrow
Lord knows I'm a liar

I'm at the mouth of a big, big river, and I'm surely gonna die
But if I do, or if I don't, we'll meet on the other side
Guess I used to feel alive, now I'm paralyzed
But I still feel it in my heartbeat, but it means nothing at all

And you'll find me at the bottom
Of a raging river, or a bottle
And grace will lead, I will follow
And faithfully, 'til tomorrow
Now I know you're a liar
