  • 作词 : Beavers, Warren
    I was fifteen when my daddy died,
    mama worked two jobs just to get by
    Seemed like a blessing when Harley came around
    so she took his name but I had my doubts
    Didn't take long for his drinking ways
    to start showing up on mama's face
    One violent night hiding under my bed
    I swore that he wouldn't see another sunset
    Next day I followed him down to the riverbank
    I knew one of us wouldn't walk away
    I might have had a plan but he didn't know it
    I might have been scared but I didn't show it
    That's all between the river and me
    With the current and the rocks it could have been misty
    He might have been sober but I brought the whiskey
    That's all between the river and me
    I walked up to him and I said his name
    Just so he could see the look on my face
    We stood eye to eye and toe to toe
    When I told him that he wasn't gonna come back home
    He raised his fist to me but I didn't flinch
    I said 'I ain't your son you son of a *****'
    I might have had a knife in my back pocket
    I might have pulled it out before he saw it
    That's all between the river and me
    I might have had a gun but I didn't fire it
    He might have tried to yell but I kept him quiet
    That's all between the river and me
    That's all between the river and me
    Sheriff came knocking on our front door
    They said they found his body by the reservoir
    Bottle in his shirt and liquor in his blood
    He must have fallen in the river and he never came up
    There might have been blood but they never saw it
    Just a little mud on the living room carpet
    That's all between the river and me
    Well after what he done there ain't no wonder
    I can't remember how long I held him under
    That's all between the river and me
    That's all between the river and me
    That's all between the river and me
    That's all
    That's all
