lirik lagu deep river – ida mae
[intro]
you were a cannonball, moving on the water
i was the moon and the river and the rapture
mississippi cavalier crashing through the mayqueen chandeliers
oh, my [0:25?]
[verse 1]
we left the river, headed to the city
just two organ grinders, looking for a monkey
with tombstone hearts and blacksmith hands
aching just for being there on dry land
clattering stone and rattling bones
stepping to the beat of an old acetone
you and me, my baby blue
in the concrete jungle without our shoes
oh, my [?]
[verse 2]
you get to the city, you gotta get a job
and you’ll walk those streets until your feet throb
white shirts, clean t**th, combed hair, tie
you’ll still be at the bottom of the welfare line
i tried to be a weatherman, tried to mix drinks
took out loans to learn to think
pink pills fizzing up my brain
i stayed unemployed as the falling rain
oh, my [?]
[chorus]
deep river bottom blues
deep river bottom blues, yeah
[verse 3]
mr banks said he could help but i could see his t**th
cl!cking like a tiger before fresh meat
compound interest, fdic
nothing in this town ever came for free
i soon missed the wind, blowing through the rushes
i soon missed the river song riding like a d*ch*ss
lost in someone else’s prayer
trapped between the cold earth and the air
oh, my [?]
[chorus]
deep river bottom blues
deep river bottom blues, yeah
[instrumental]
[verse 4]
in my blood, i could feel the tide
pulling through me like a president’s pride, i
knew it was time to leave
smell of the water coming through the trees
so we drank to the zealots, apostles and dreamers
that were poor as the patriots and parking meters
and flowed like a river full of gasoline
and all of the ice down in new orleans, ’cause
there was no message i could find
no epiphany calling from the clear divine
just broken screens and flying machines, in pieces on the ground
oh, my [?]
[chorus]
deep river bottom blues
deep river bottom blues, yeah
oh, my [?]
[outro]
you were a cannonball, moving on the water
i was the moon and the river and the rapture
mississippi cavaliers crashing through the mayqueen chandeliers
