The Bridge Washed Out

The Bridge Washed Out - Warner Mack

The bridges washed out and I can't swim

And my baby's on the other side

When I awoke this morning

The rain was a pouring down

I was gonna wade a little river girl

Just over the bridge across town

Now I'm a running up and down the river

And my nerves are driving me wild

Cause the bridge washed out and I can't swim

And my baby's on the other side

Rain old rain

Stop a falling dark clouds hurry from the sky

The preacher and my bride are waiting

And the wedding bells are starting to chime

I can't kiss and hold her

And it's driving me out of my mind

Cause the bridge washed out and I can't swim

And my baby's on the other side

And I got one foot in the water

The one foot solid on the ground

I try to swim that raging old river

But I know if I try I'll drown

There's not a boat around me

They've all gone out with the tide

And the bridge washed out and I can't swim

But my baby's on the other side

Rain old rain

Stop a falling dark clouds hurry from the sky

The preacher and my bride are waiting

And the wedding bells are starting to chime

I can't kiss and hold her

And it's driving me out of my mind

Cause the bridge washed out and I can't swim

And my baby's on the other side

Yeah the bridge washed out and I can't swim

And my baby's on the other side
