The River Only Flows One Way Songtext
von Gov’t Mule

There′s communication and compromise
But the river only flows one way
There's looking at things through someone else′s eyes
But the river only flows one way

You can build a dam and cut your losses
Build a bridge to get across it
But at the end of the day
The river only flows one way

Oh, how could you hurt me so?

There's answers here and answers there
But the river only flows one way
So many questions floating in the air
But the river only flows one way


You can change directions, you can change your mind
You can change partners, even change your crimes
You can get down on your knees and pray
But the river only flows one way

Oh, how could you hurt me so?

One shot answers when another shot calls
But the river only flows one way
One fool rises when another fool falls
But the river only flows one way

Jack be naughty, Jack be styling
Jack Ruby was the queen of diamonds
But the king is here to stay
And the river only flows one way

Oh
Oh
How could you hurt me so?
Oh, how could you hurt me so?
I said, oh
