[Verse 1] I've sung sad songs all my life Honest words turned to lies And if I were keener Then I'd learn to talk with a smile Thereby rendering your very heart To melt away
[Pre-Chorus] 'Cause I've left women at the door Wonderin' what they loved me for Cries out the dreamer "Hell, if I'm doin' this anymore" I guess I've just grown tired tryin' to get you to see Nothing's ever what it used to be
[Chorus] Woah, Ohio River, won't you take me home? Leave me where the sunshine goes every night And fly me there, and take me to a place somewhere I'm hopin' I can hide my face for once in a while 'Cause all I can do is hope and pray I'll be a better man someday Great, big river, wash these blues away
[Verse 2] So try to hold on all you can Sleepin' pills and wedding bands And whatever should come along, yeah Whatever shit should hit the fan At least you'll get a better look all the fun that you had
[Pre-Chorus] 'Cause I've known sinners to believe In counting cards and time machines So if you're an angel Then would you shine your little light over me? I'll be wearin' all the clothes that I got Washin' dishes in the belly of a restaurant Singin'
[Chorus] Woah, Ohio River, won't you take me home? Yeah, leave me where the sunshine goes every night And fly me there, and take me to a place somewhere I'm hopin' I can hide my face for once in a while 'Cause all I can do is hope and pray I'll be a better man someday Great, big river, wash these blues, Lord, wash 'em away Great, big river, wash these blues, Lord, wash 'em away Great big river, wash these blues awayTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
