Drown

It's a long way down the Mississippi Though it's so close to my heart Where the ocean is waiting like a mother To take you in her arms She'll take you in her arms and rock you back and forth Quiet you, and soon you'll feel fine The rain up from the north makes its way down to the south Where you will drown In the rail-yards, empty as a strip mine Only ghost trains pass through While the ocean is waiting like a lover One who never will abandon you She'll take you in her arms and rock you back and forth Quiet you, and soon you'll feel fine The rain up from the north makes its way down to the south Where you will drown She'll take you in her arms and rock you back and forth Take you in her arms where you will drown, where you will drown It's a long way down the Mississippi though it's easy to find Just follow the winding of the River slipping on through the countryside She'll take you in her arms and rock you back and forth Quiet you, and soon you'll feel fine The rain up from the north makes its way down to the south Where you will drown Where you will drown Where you will drown Where you will drown
