lirik lagu out of system transfer - hank stamper's blues
well, the river ran right up against the house where i was born
and i would step in ankle deep, many a chilly early morn
and i cursed that godd~mn river, “get the h~ll back to the sea!”
but i never gave an inch, just like my daddy said i always ought to be
and it ain’t just them baby bobcats that it drowned when i was ten
no, there’s there’s a hundred stories i would tell, make your hair stand up on end
yeah the river it’s been a lot of things…but it ain’t never been my friend
yeah, granddaddy dug his plot right down into the river shore
he watched the neighbors all retreat at least a hundred yards or more
they said “fall on back you old fool, or she’ll wash your life away!”
but granddaddy wasn’t one to listen to anything that anyone would say
and his daddy came from utah, his grandpa from ohio
but rotten luck birthed him in oregon with no more west to go
yeah the river might be real friendly…but granddaddy never did think so
and you say you want your reasons
like you could handle maybe two or three
but the reasons go back two or three centuries
man, you wouldn’t believe!
and they say she was a highway for those rugged frontier men
and the school kids come by every year in may just to pretend
yeah the river it’s been a lot of things…but it ain’t never been my friend!
it ain’t never been my friend!
it ain’t never been my friend!
