She wasn't bad, she wasn't good She was just what she was She had a thing makes a man Do the things he does
She had a way, a special way To speak without a word I swear to you, this very day That this is how it all occurred
We was throwin' rocks in the river, counting ties on the track Thinking life could not be better, living in a shack Feeling love for one another, deep down in our bones Standing by the water, throwin' rocks, skippin' stones
I was raised in New Orleans She was born in Jacksonville And for a time, to me it seems She made the world stand still
Throwin' rocks in the river, counting ties on the track Thinking life could not be better, living in a shack Feeling love for one another, deep down in our bones Standing by the water, throwin' rocks, skippin' stones
I came home late and I caught her With a man from out of town Now I wait beside the water For the flood to take me down
Throwin' rocks in the river, counting ties on the track Pouring gas on her letters and setting fire to the shack Screaming bloody murder, leaving nothing but the bones Standing by the water, throwin' rocks, skippin' stones
I am standing by the water, yeah, throwin' rocks, skippin' stones
