Don't Cross The River America (Peek) There's a little girl out lying on her own She's got a broken heart She's not the kind to take you down for long She knows and plays it smart And if she's comin' she's shown no mark She's heard no whistle blowin' from the dark She feels like leavin' and she don't know why Without no bridges she's trapped, so I sigh Don't cross the river if you can't swin the tide Don't try denying livin' on the other side All your life you were on your own And if you want you can ride my train And soon forget the reason that you're leavin' You'll lose yourself and then some time Maybe even save yourself some grievin' Don't cross the river if you can't swin the tide Don't try denying livin' on the other side All your life you were on your own
