Roll on muddy river, roll to the sea Take all these memories from me Take all of the rain that's falling down Take all of these teardrops splashing on the ground It's about a love that's got me blue A love forsaken for somebody new He roles through town just like you do He's just like the river that's only passing through So roll on muddy river, roll to the sea Take all these memories from me Take all of the rain that's falling down Take all of these teardrops splashing on the ground I've grown so tired of all those lies I'm on my way now to find some bluer skies Gonna find me a ticket far from this town Far from the river that only brings me down I've got a broken heart, it's about to mend Like it always has, time and time again Gonna send these troubles on down the line I'm gonna let them spill and flow away like wine Roll on muddy river, roll to the sea Take all these memories from me Take all of the rain that's falling down Take all of these teardrops splashing on the ground Take all of the rain that's falling down Take all of these teardrops splashing on the ground
