Riverbed (Album) - Davy Knowles

I can remember the night oh so well

The way the moon shone down

Mississippi river swell

Not a soul out there

Could have known

Just how quick and fast

That fog would come down

In the middle of a silent night

Heard that whistle blow

Was the wrong place

At the wrong time

Now the tracks are bent out of line

I said down on the Riverbed's

Where you'll find those souls

It was the first mate

On the foredeck

Ran my ship aground

I said down on the Riverbed's

Where you'll find those souls

Will find those souls

Now the train had just left

The station in New Orleans

'Bout the same time we hit

The bridge at two fifteen

And I can still hear

Twisting metal cry

As a broken track

Threw the train off the line

In the middle of a silent night

Heard that whistle blow

Was the wrong place

At the wrong time

Now the tracks are bent out of line

I said down on the Riverbed's

Where you'll find those souls

It was the first mate

On the foredeck

Ran my ship aground

I said down on the Riverbed's

Where you'll find those souls

Will find those souls

I know I'll never find

Any kind of peace of mind

Oh you can rest assured

I will always remember

The sound of that whistle blow

Yeah was the wrong place

At the wrong time

Now the tracks are bent out of line

I said down on the Riverbed's

Where you'll find those souls

It was the first mate

On the foredeck

Ran my ship aground

I said down on the Riverbed's

Where you'll find those souls

Will find those souls
