Dry the River - Bible Belt |

'Lo and behold your mother is drinking again |
| [00:34.71] |
This might be the coldest winter since records began |
| [00:49.60] |
You were alone and steady with wintry calm |
| [01:06.80] |
Leading the children softly across the fold |
| [01:17.59] |
|
| [01:38.39] |
In the morning you march your sisters like soldiers to school |
| [01:51.79] |
'Cause lo and behold your father has drunk quite a few |
| [02:04.80] |
You were alone and steady with wintry calm |
| [02:17.67] |
Somewhere inside the fire of your youth went dark |
| [02:31.92] |
But you swear blind there is no weight in the water pail |
| [02:45.73] |
And you say 'my love, you take the cards that you're dealt' |
| [02:58.52] |
There's no guiding light arcing a line to Bethlehem |
| [03:13.73] |
And when it's dark outside, you light the fire yourself |
| [03:24.42] |
|
| [03:28.38] |
Darling when the ice caps melt |
| [03:32.04] |
When the devils in the bible belt |
| [03:35.14] |
Don't you cower in your bed |
| [03:37.53] |
|
| [03:41.88] |
I'll be at the five-four-five |
| [03:44.96] |
You can meet me at the railway line |
| [03:48.00] |
Don't look so staid |
| [03:52.33] |
|
| [03:55.88] |
'Cause we've been through worse than this before we could talk |
| [04:09.69] |
And the trick of it is, don't be afraid anymore |
| [04:19.78] |
Oh, the trick of it is, don't be afraid anymore |
| [04:31.45] |
