| I live by the river on the wrong side of town
|
| Nothing much to do here but listen to the sound
|
| Of a train I’ll never catch passin’me by Of the muddy water drinkin’the tears that I cry
|
| So I heard you’re comin’back with somebody else
|
| Well, if I had the time, if I had a little help…
|
| Every bridge in Dickson County would be burning down tonight
|
| Every bridge in Dickson County would be burning down tonight
|
| I have to think of something, I just have to find a way
|
| Before you cross that river, before I see your face
|
| 'Cause I can see you headlights and I can feel the pain
|
| And nothing’s gonna save me if I see you again
|
| But if I could use this torch I carry to put it all to rights
|
| I’d be baptized in the ashes come the morning light
|
| And Every bridge in Dickson County would be burning down tonight
|
| Every bridge in Dickson County would be burning down tonight
|
| I’d pay the price, I’d take the blame
|
| If I could see it go up in flames
|
| And if I could use this torch I carry
|
| To put it all to rights
|
| Every bridge in Dickson County would be burning down tonight
|
| Dickson County |
