Just Another River Town

[Verse 1]
Fortunes made and fortunes lost
People played and double-crossed
Some have turned up on the stage
Others in the river wash
If these tavern wall could sing
They’d tell us all so many things
Like just how lonely it can be

[Chorus]
Just another river town
Seen it’s share of bad go down
So when that steel guitar rings out
Be grateful you’re on dry ground
This place is just another river town

[Verse 2]
Broken hearts and broken bones
Shattered dreams and broken homes
I’ve seen enough to know what streets you don’t walk alone
It sure ain’t easy on your own

[Chorus]
Just another river town
Seen it’s share of bad go down
So when that steel guitar rings out
Be grateful you’re on dry ground
This place is just another river town

[Verse 3]
Then I hear the Sunday morning choir
When that church door’s swinging wide
There’s a girl whose voice is bound to reach the sky
And when she smiles there’s redemption in her eyes

[Chorus]
Just another river town
Seen it’s share of bad go down
So when that steel guitar rings out
Be grateful you’re on dry ground
This place is just another river town
This place is just another river town
This place is just another river town
