lyrics

Well ya ask me bout a man and I'll tell ya friend
tell ya bout a man that I did wrong
he loved so tenderly swore he'd never leave me
his hands were rough but his voice was like a song
we courted through the spring so you'd think naturally
he'd ask me to be his bride
but i was wrong so ya know, to the river we did go
two went down but only one came back alive

he floated down, down, down, down, down, down oh
he floated down
and i watched him disappear
before anyone will notice you are gone
i'll be far away from here

now i've ridden all this time just to get him off my mind
to try and ease my aching head
but at night i think about all the words that he did shout
as his love run out and I shot my baby dead
