Don't Cross The River Lyrics

America Don't Cross The River

There's a little girl out lyin' on her own 
She's got a broken heart 
She's not the kind to take you down for long 
She knows and plays it smart 

(Ah--) And if she's comin' she's showed no mark 
She's heard no whistle blowin' from the dark 
She feels like leavin' and she don't know why 
Without no bridges she's trapped, so I sigh 

Don't cross the river if you can't swim the tide 
Don't try denyin' livin' on the other side 
All your life 
You were on your own 

If you want you can ride my train 
And soon forget the reason that you're leaving 
You'll lose yourself and then sometime 
Maybe even save yourself some grievin' 

Oh, oh, oh, oh 

Don't cross the river if you can't swim the tide 
Don't try denyin' livin' on the other side 
Don't cross the river if you can't swim the tide 
Don't try denyin' livin' on the other side 
Don't cross the river if you can't swim the tide 
Don't cross the river if you can't swim the tide 
Don't cross the river if you can't swim the tide ...
