Sold Down the River |
| Where is the love that you promised neath the pine |
| Gone like the flowers in the fall |
| You crossed your heart now you’re double crossing mine |
| You’ve been petending after all |
| I was sold down the river to a port of broken dreams |
| Drifting in sorrow down the stream |
| Sold down the river on a ship that won’t return |
| When it anchors in the sea of broken dreams |
| I never dreamed that your love would grow so cold |
| Hiding behind the rainbow’s end |
| You must be blind for the glitter of the gold |
| Gold that can never find a friend |
| I was sold down the river to a port of broken dreams |
| Drifting in sorrow down the stream |
| Sold down the river on a ship that won’t return |
| When it anchors in the sea of broken dreams |
| You’ll never know what it means to sit and cry |
| After your heart is broken too |
| Someday you’ll learn and your soul will burn and die |
| When some one double crosses you |
| I was sold down the river to a port of broken dreams |
| Drifting in sorrow down the stream |
| Sold down the river on a ship that won’t return |
| When it anchors in the sea of broken dreams |
