RED RIVER
© Rob Russell Davies 2006
Swimming in the Red River
I watch you in the Red River break my heart
Splashing out with another
I'm looking on as your lover tears me apart
From the banks
Of this place they call Red River
Cheatin' in the grey water
Kissin' in the grey water nice and slow
Take your time with your stranger
Unaware of the danger so real, so close
On the banks
Of this place they call Red River
(Piano Solo)
Now I'm watching those green eyes
A territorial green eyed crocodile
Should I shout out a warning?
Well that would be very sporting, but I'll wait awhile
At the banks
Of this place they call Red River
Lazing by the Red River
Soaking up the Red Rivers' atmosphere
Resting up on a signpost
Red painting on limestone, 'please don't swim here!'
By the banks
Of this place they call Red River
So take care at the place they call Red River
And beware of the place they call Red River
