"Wrong Side Of The River" lyrics

Gonna hitch me a ride in the dead of might and leave
You can keep your weekend gamblers and your goddamn delta heat
I don't need your empty dreams and miles of angry streets
Like that hard-earned money I'm gone
Been on the wrong side of the river too long

I've been staring at the lights of Tennessee
All my life that golden fire have been staring back at me
Calling me across them dark waters dark and deep
Calling me saying "Honey, come on"
Been on the wrong side of the river too long

Gonna see that devil fell down from the sky
Lost his place in heaven among the angels they're on high
Fell into that river, washed up on the side
Trying to find himself a new home
He's been on the wrong side of the river too long

Been on the wrong side of the river too long
He's been on the wrong side of the river too long

Been on the wrong side of the river too long
Been on the wrong side of the river too long
Been on the wrong side of the river too long
Been on the wrong side of the river too long
Been on the wrong side of the river
Been on the wrong side of the river
Been on the wrong side of the river too long
