I recall that Twisy River Bridge
|
Over that painted river bed
|
They pumped about a gallon of Muddy Water
|
Out of my salty head.
|
|
I woke up in St. James Devine
|
All wrapped up in plaster and twine
|
The nurse said I made the front page
|
Of the River City Sunday Times.
|
|
Oh, that Twisty River Bridge
|
Was damn near, the death of me
|
Love, wine and Gasoline
|
Don't mix with jealousy
|
|
Have you seen my Reena
|
Did she, did she make it home?
|
We had a little misunderstanding
|
Talkin on the telephone
|
|
Tell her that I miss her
|
But I dont miss what she done
|
When she run off with that double talkin
|
Son of a Preachers son
|
|
Oh, that Twisty River Bridge
|
Was damn near, the death of me
|
Love, wine and Gasoline
|
Don't mix with jealousy
|
