River Called Disaster

Bent up and beat up

Broken and bruised

Tied up, taken

Mistaken and used

Let down, heartache

And comes one and after

I'm broke down in a river called "Disaster"

Hit rock bottom, kept on digging

Took my medicine and kept on singing

Head down, you think

You'd get there any faster

Wanna float like a fish from this river called "Disaster"

Down in the flood (No, no, no)

Down in the flood (No, no, no)

Go where the water tastes like wine

Down here it tastes like turpentine

I know I'm not like that pastor

Who baptized me in a river called "Disaster"

Down in the flood (No, no, no)

Down in the flood (No, no, no)

Down in the flood (No, no, no)

Down in the flood

I drifted too far from the shore

Caught in the current

More, more, more

Get me back to my room at the Hotel Astor

Don't wanna drown in this river called "Disaster"

Down in the flood (No, no, no)

Down in the flood (No, no, no)

Down in the flood (No, no, no)

Down in the flood
