Haunted River

With that

The cold new england wind

Blowin' through my hair

As my blood and whisky

Run through me as one

Didn't anybody hear her silent scream

Didn't anybody see his twisted grin

All the neighbours wept and cried

By her shallow grave

And her mama prayed the lord her soul to take

And her daddy stood alone he swore revenge

And the haunted river flowed with blood again

Late one night he crossed

The river by himself

The waters surged to reach for him through the night

And the storm raged on

And on

On and on

And on

And on

Everybody wonderedwhat ever happened to

The old reverend brown

Who preaches Sunday mass

And the sea turned calm and blue

By the oceans door

And the haunted river flowed with blood no more
