Black river blues
My cheatin' heart's being torn in two
I'd love to stay with you a while
But I gotta burn one thousand black river miles
Before I sleep
Before I rest
Cause I got two loves burnin' holes inside my chest
There is something you know I gotta do
Before I lay me down and sleep here beside you
When I get home
When I get home
When I get home
There's a two lane highway in my mind
My heart's divided by white lines
So what am I supposed to do
When the lane I love is the lane takes me farther from you
And that black river's
Callin' my name
And if I don't go I know I'll go insane
And I'll walk a thousand miles in these worn out shoes
And then I'll lay me down and sleep here beside you
When I get home
When I get home
When I get home
