Well, the river runs through this valley
Combing deep and black [?]
Coming like a tombstone`s
Shadows across my back
Trouble River
Six foot high and risin`
Trouble River
I can`t keep from cryin`
Woke up last night a`shakin`
Shakin` from a dream
All I seen was smilin` faces
Starin` back at me
Trouble River
Six foot high and risin`
Trouble River
I can`t keep from cryin`
Snakes crawling in the house
I`m stuck in muddy ground
Tonight I`m gonna shed this skin
Cause water`s risin` and I goin` down to
Trouble River
Six foot high and risin`
Trouble River
I can`t keep from cryin`
