It's been thirty-one years
Since she's been in your arms
But don't worry about Mama, Mama's got a good heart
And I'm not looking for your love
I'm only sniffing out blood and
Just a little taste of where I came from
And at the bottom of this river
Is where I put you down to lay
So I can live with it
And in my heart, heart, heart there are these waters
Where I put you down to lay
While I learn to live with it
Until I'm free
And it's been all my life
I've been wondering on the inside
What we could've had if you'd had a part in my life
And there were children involved
And they were brothers to me
Even if we never got to meet
And at the bottom of this river
Is where I put you down to lay
So I can live with it
And in my heart, heart, heart there are these waters
Where I put you down to lay
While I learn to live with it
Until I'm
Free at last from this shadow that hangs
Surely you wonder sometimes
And I'm sure you all sympathize
Just what a man's to become
But just like his daddy has done
I just want to love someone
Who has the same blood
Who has the same blood
ย
And at the bottom of this river
Is where I put you down to lay
So I can live with it
And in my heart, heart, heart there are these waters
Where I put you down to lay
While I learn to live with it
