Cotton Mouth River
Well, I know that I shouldn't have done itI know that it just wasn't right'Cause they got me back up to the Cotton Mouth RiverAnd I can't cross late at nightI hear there's lots of stories told about the Cotton Mouth RiverThey tell them time and againAbout the men who tried to cross that river by moonlightAnd never were heard from againIf I had my live to live overI'd have gone to work that dayInstead of going into town and shooting him downFor a thing I never heard him sayI hear there's lots of stories told about the Cotton Mouth RiverThey tell them time and againAbout the men who tried to cross that river by moonlightAnd never was heard from againWell, I just made it through the cane breakAnd I got one foot in the mudI can hear the hounds obeying but the snake around my anklesTelling me my running days are doneI hear there's lots of stories told about the Cotton Mouth RiverLetras de cancionesThey tell them time and againAbout the men who tried to cross that river by moonlightAnd never were heard from againI hear there's lots of stories told about the Cotton Mouth RiverThey tell them time and againAbout the men who tried to cross that river by moonlightAnd never were heard from again
