Whiskey Myers – On The River lyrics
Lord Jebediah, won't you let me down
Promise me a place from here much better
There's aftermath, them tires intact [?]
Won't you give it all up for me?
I'm sad to say the time of day
Been a lone cabin down there by the river
Raise your kids the best there is
And not worry 'bout your head and quiver

Yeah, this place ain't saving grace
You can't buy more peace than it pays
There's war paint, more blood than there ain't
And there's smoke down there on the river

Old Jebediah's serving two more years
And he's landing a job with the man selling off landslides
Paired away the golden maid
And stayed enough to build that home for marriage
Now the time of day cut the wolves away
Made a deal with the tribe and he hoped to cheap the keeping
It all came down to plan B
[?] ones who need it

Yeah, this place ain't saving grace
You can't buy more peace than it pays
There's war paint, more blood than there ain't
And there's smoke down there on the river
Oh, the river

Yeah, this place ain't saving grace
You can't buy more peace than it pays
There's war paint, more blood than there ain't
And there's smoke down there on the river

On the river
On the river
