Lyrics of Moody river

Moody river more deadly than the vainest knife
Moody river your muddy water took my baby's life

Last saturday evening i came to the old oak tree
That stands beside the river where you were to meet me
On the ground your glove i found with a note addressed to me
It read dear love i've done you wrong now i must set you free
No longer can i live with this hurt and this sin
I just couldn't tell you that guy was just a friend
( piano )
Moody river more deadly...

I looked into the muddy water and what could i see
I saw a lonely lonely face just looking back at me
Tears in his eyes and the prayer on his lips
And the glove of his lost love at his fingertips
( piano )
Moody river more deadly...
