River Song

Got a broken heart I'm busted up My legs are tired, my eyes are shut There ain't no doctor gonna ease my pain If I make it to the judgment day With calloused feet and dirty nails They're likely just to send me home again I'll go down to the river And I'll wash away the sand And when I look across the water I'll find some peace again I know that you can't help me: We can only help ourselves And I'm doin' the best that I can I done some things I shouldn't have I said some things I can't take back There are people who don't wanna hear my name But I never meant to hurt no one My heart is true and when we're done I hope you will forgive my wilder days I'll go down to the river And I'll wash away the sand And when I look across the water I'll find some peace again I know that you can't help me: We can only help ourselves And I'm doin' the best that I can I'm cleanin' up my very best I'm ironin' my Sunday dress I'm shinin' up my favorite pair of shoes When the water hits my knees I'll feel the grace of everything The world will be a perfect shade of blue I'll go down to the river And I'll wash away the sand And when I look across the water I'll find some peace again I know that you can't help me: We can only help ourselves And I'm doin' the best that I can I'll go down to the river And I'll wash away the sand And when I look across the water I'll find some peace again I know that you can't help me: We can only help ourselves And I'm doin' the best that I can
