Lyrics River of Sorrow - Charley Crockett

River of Sorrow

I got myself a river of sorrow
I lost my name in the valley of shame
I got no one to tell my troubles
A life of sinnin', all I know
But if I’m patient
I need not worry
And if I’m hurting
It’s sure to change
Sometimes I wonder why do I bother
With this burden, heavy load
I can’t struggle with my tomorrow
Because I’ve got so much further to go
Well I’m leaving early in the morning
Where I’m bound I just can’t tell
I would stay here and keep on workin'
But there’s no more water in the well
But if I’m patient
I need not worry
And if I’m hurting
It’s sure to change
I had myself a river of sorrow
I lost my name in a valley of blue
I had no one who I could talk to
A life of sinnin', all I knew
A life of sinnin', all I knew
A life of sinnin' was all that I knew
