Trinity River

Trinity river, such a dirty little river

But that don't bother me

Dirty little river gonna get me clean

Trinity river

Though, because I cry

Gon' keep me honest with everybody tellin' lies

Damn center evening hung everywhere

Gamblers turn their cars

And drinkin' on that whiskey hard

Damn center evening flows through my head

I had the sweetest dream

I was floatin' in the river dead

Trinity river, such a dirty little river

But that don't bother me

Dirty little river gonna get me clean

Trinity river

Though, because I cry

Gon' keep you honest, even when you're tellin' lies

In this river city

Nothin' ever lasts

Beside the lonesome noose

Starin' back at you

In this river city

One thing you can show

Whatever you got to give

Somebody gonna get some gold

Trinity river, such a dirty little river

But that don't bother me

Dirty little river gonna get me clean

Trinity river

Though, because I cry

Gon' keep me honest even though they tellin' lies

Trinity river, dirty water risin' up

Trinity river, couldn't drown me fast enough

Trinity river

Though, because I cry

Gon' keep you honest even though you're tellin' lies
