Throwin' Rocks |
| Alright |
| One, two, ready, go |
| She wasn’t bad, she wasn’t good |
| She was just what she was |
| She had a thing makes a man |
| Do the things he does |
| She had a way, a special way |
| To speak without a word |
| I swear to you, this very day |
| That this is how it all occurred |
| We was throwin' rocks in the river, counting ties on the track |
| Thinking life could not be better, living in a shack |
| Feeling love for one another, deep down in our bones |
| Standing by the water, throwin' rocks, skippin' stones |
| I was raised in New Orleans |
| She was born in Jacksonville |
| And for a time, to me it seems |
| She made the world stand still |
| Throwin' rocks in the river, counting ties on the track |
| Thinking life could not be better, living in a shack |
| Feeling love for one another, deep down in our bones |
| Standing by the water, throwin' rocks, skippin' stones |
| I came home late and I caught her |
| With a man from out of town |
| Now I wait beside the water |
| For the flood to take me down |
| Throwin' rocks in the river, counting ties on the track |
| Pouring gas on her letters and setting fire to the shack |
| Screaming bloody murder, leaving nothing but the bones |
| Standing by the water, throwin' rocks, skippin' stones |
| I am standing by the water, yeah, throwin' rocks, skippin' stones |
| (Throwin' rocks, skippin' stones) |
| (Throwin' rocks, skippin' stones) |
| (No-no-no)… |
