|
Across the river a good woman cried |
|
All because a foolish man lied. |
|
She gave up everything, everything that money could buy |
|
But the man told so many lies, there's another man over there |
|
That woman across the river, sweet woman across the river - she was mine |
|
Word got around that he had jilted her |
|
Men came running from near and far |
|
Should've never been so foolish - guess |
|
I'll never |
|
But the man that's got her now, he's a lucky so-and-so |
|
That woman across the river, sweet woman across the river - she was mine. |
|
I remember the other day, about a week ago |
|
She said "I don't even want to talk to you 'cause I don't love you anymore." |
|
That woman across the river, sweet woman across the river - she was mine. |
|
Across the river a good woman cried |
|
All because a foolish man lied |
|
She gave up everything, tried to keep him satisfied |
|
But the man told so many lies, there's another man over there |
|
That woman across the river, |
|
That woman across the river, |
|
That woman across the river, sweet woman across the river - she was mine. |
