Hope It Don’t Songtext
von All Tvvins

Well it′s old wood
Oh, this place could haunt you
If only I could stay
Not only I could say
That it shook the clothes
From my tired bones
Well this place is a book of matches
Whole world knows to keep away

When the hour was breaking
On the hour was good
And the money you're making
On the money was good
But it broke your spirit
Oh, it broke you down
And now you′re dying to leave it
Destined to live not leaving this town


Ah baby won't you roll back round
Nothing ain't forgiven on this holy ground
When this good-old fire don′t make no smoke, no sound
Oh, you can breathe in now

So won′t you say you do
Like I say I do
Would you hold me baby like it's all ok?
I′ll pretend I never even heard you say

I just hope it don't
I just hope it don′t
I just hope it don't
Hope, I just hope it don′t

Well the river was twisting
Like a river it should
And over time that we're missing
What the river it took
Well it washed our children
It wash our hands
Remember the blood here
Remember the blood that ran from the land


Ah, baby won't you roll back round
Nothing ain′t forgiven on this holy ground
When this good-old fire don′t make no smoke, no sound
Oh, you can breathe in now

Won't you say you do
Like I say I do
Would you hold me baby like it′s all ok?
Like it's all ok
It′s all ok

I will love you
'Til the day I don′t
I will want you
'Til the day I won't
But if I don′t need you
′Til the day I'm gone

I just hope that day don′t come
I just hope I'm wrong

(Don′t come and hope it don't)
(Don′t come and hope it don't) I just hope it don't
(Don′t come and hope it don′t)
(Don't come and hope it don′t) I just hope it don't
(Don′t come and hope it don't)
(Don′t come and hope it don't) I just hope it don't
(Don′t come and hope it don′t)
Hope, I just hope it don't

I just hope it don′t
I just hope it don't
I just hope it don′t
Hope, I just hope it don't
