Backwater

The crown is in your heart not on your head

Tired city eyes are hard pressed

For a twilight to feast your eyes on

And run back to someone ya knew

'Fore a dollar cut you clean in two

Come back come back to backwater

When heavy gets too heavy

And the road gets too long

All your time they bought for a song

All your time they bought is gone

Come back come back to backwater

Drive a nail through red oak in one swing

If ya can't love another don't mean a thing

The years show on your face

Only your kin's gonna remember all the time you waste

Come back come back to backwater

When heavy gets too heavy

And the road gets too long

All your time they bought for a song

All your time they bought is gone

Come back come back to backwater

We all knew where your heart was meant to be

Far from a man the world whittled clean

So come back come back to backwater

When heavy gets too heavy

And the road gets too long

All your time they bought for a song

All your time they bought is gone

Come back come back come back to backwater
