Red River

The light is finally fadin'

And so I'll say goodnight

I'll step out in the darkness

Around the fire light

I'll step out in the darkness

Lost my way around, I'm goin' now

But I'll be by tonight

I'll get held up by this heart of mine

I was forgotten and buried in the ground

I was reborn into this world

Never made it out

I wandered through the mornin'

I strode along the lines

I woke up in the trenches

They left the dead behind

I woke up in the trenches

Burned up in the mud

And now I know it just buried me alive

If I'm held up by this heart of mine

Oh, no

It's all forgotten and buried in the ground

I was reborn into this world

Never made it out

Red river, carry me home

I've never been so alone

When the lime messed up my eyes

Red river, carry me home
