Kishore Kumar Hits — William Topley - Black River lyrics

Artist: William Topley

album: Black River

What am I going to do?
Ain't no cage that can hold you
Said it's going to be rough
Facing up to some justice
Oh Black River let me roll back to you
Under the water the light looks so fine
And down in the shallows
The faithless are gathering
To steal from the sufferer
What's yours and what's mine
What am I going to say
And who's going to believe me
When they drag you away
Scratching and screaming and kicking
Said it's going to be brutal
And it's me who's left grieving facing up to the truth
Oh Black River let me roll back to you
Under the water the light looks so fine
And down in the shallows the faithless are gathering
To steal from the sufferer
The sacrament wine
Oh Black River
Let me roll back to you
Under the water the light looks so fine
And out on the iron shore the lighthouse is flickering
A psalm for the serpents
Some rummy's last call
Oh Black River
Let me roll back to you
Under the water the light looks so fine
And down in the foxhole
The torchlights still flickering
And back in the shanty
The waters run dry
What am I going to do?
Ain't no cage that can hold you
What am I gonna say
When they drag you away
