red river valley's run dry - kayla ray lyrics

born the orphan daughter of a well*known city man
she had the smile of a woman the kind you all know
from the scarlet side of town
at 15 she ran, she stole out of amarillo
just clawing for higher ground
for a man that don’t come around

sometimes life ain’t kind
and the red river valleys run dry
you can’t swim a dry river just like you can’t stop the time
oh the red river valleys run dry

in south oklahoma she lay with a rigger
when summer was turning to fall
i was born in the spring on a vinyl backseat
near the banks of the old ouachita

momma said he was happy
daddy left when she had me
he ran without talking at all
while most would lie weepin’
she was ironin’ and sweepin’
and softly singing her song

sometimes life just ain’t kind
and the red river valleys run dry
you can’t swim a dry river like you can’t stop the time
oh the red river valleys run dry
see i’m a product of leavin’
the thought’s been conceived that for me to run would only be fair
don’t it that seem natural for me to take my guitar
tie a honeysuckle all in my hair
don’t take time to judge me
it barely affects me
and most nights i’m too stoned to care
momma died happy bussin’ tables at snappy
but i can hear it as if she was here

sometimes life ain’t kind
and the red river valleys run dry
you can’t swim a dry river just like you can’t stop the time
oh the red river valleys run dry

you can’t swim a dry river just like you can’t stop the time
oh the red river valleys run dry
