Black River Songtext
von Empire Cats

Black river crawling
Hard rain falling
Black river crawling
The Old Man come calling

It′s been such a long time ago
But it ain't hard to remember
The sky put its fist on the earth that day
Started splitting timber

Banks slid back down into the water
Just swallowed them up
River boiled up right into the city
You couldn′t run fast enough


Black river crawling
Hard rain falling
Black river crawling
The Old Man come calling

Dirt, dark, death and destruction
Turned that water black
And once that tide started rolling, baby
No turning it back

Black river crawling
The Old Man come calling
Here he comes

Black river crawling
Hard rain falling
