River Run Down

[Chorus]
Oh, the river run down
But the stream ran dry
Big strong man don't ever cry
Just stands to watch his love go by
Oh, the river run down
But the stream ran dry

[Verse 1]
Yes, he loved a woman
But he let her get away
Didn't ever think he'd regret that day
The laugh and the smile
He could still play the game
But he knew that day would never be the same

[Chorus]
Oh, the river run down
But the stream ran dry
Big strong man don't ever cry
Just stands to watch his love go by
Oh, the river run down
But the stream ran dry

[Verse 2]
There walks a man
He could've had a home
Fine baby children
A woman of his own
He walks all alone
He doesn't have a care
But he keeps on thinking that he sees her everywhere

[Chorus]
Oh, the river run down
But the stream ran dry
Big strong man don't ever cry
Just stands to watch his love go by
Oh, the river run down
But the stream ran dry

[Chorus]
Oh, the river run down
But the stream ran dry
Big strong man don't ever cry
Just stands to watch his love go by
Oh, the river run down
But the stream ran dry
