Deep Stays Down

There's a bullet in the gun, the gun went missing

Suspicion blew up like a shotgun shell

Zipping your lips, keep the truth in prison

Gonna throw away the key like you can't make bail

The cat's in the bag, the bag's in the river

And the river runs deep and the deep stays down

Better dot your eyes, the lie's getting bigger

Don't lead 'em to the needle in the haystack

The deep stays down

The deep stays down

The river runs deep and the deep stays down

The deep stays down

The deep stays down

The river runs deep and the deep stays

I, I thought I told you

I thought I told you that the deep stays

I, I thought I told you the river runs deep and the deep stays down

The trap got sprung, I read it in the paper

And the paper got read all over this town

The jury's still hung, got a snake oil savior

Who's trying catch a fox in the henhouse now

The deep stays down

The deep stays down

The river runs deep and the deep stays down

The deep stays down

The deep stays down

The river runs deep and the deep stays

I, I thought I told you

I thought I told you that the deep stays

I, I thought I told you the river runs deep and the deep stays down

I, I thought I told you

I thought I told you that the deep stays

I, I thought I told you

I thought I told you that the deep stays

I, I thought I told you

I thought I told you that the deep stays

I, I thought I told you

I thought I told you that the deep stays

The deep stays down

The deep stays down

The river runs deep and the deep stays down

The deep stays down

The deep stays down

The river runs deep and the deep stays

Pray for rain, it's a bone dry summer

Been sweatin' like a mother and the sun just beats

Who they gonna blame?

Who's a-gonna pay for every single secret that the river don't keep?
