Текст (слова) песни: Counting Crows - Crossing Muddy Waters
(Original by John Hiatt)
My baby`s gone and I don`t know why She let out this morning like a rusty shot in a hollow sky Left me without warning sooner than the dogs could bark and faster than the sun rose Down to the banks in an old mule car she took a flatboat across the shallow CHORUS: Left me in my tears to drown she left a baby daughter Now the water`s wide and deep and brown She`s crossing muddy waters Tobacco standing in the fields be rotten come November And a bitter heart will not reveal a spring that love remembers When that sweet brown girl of mine her black eyes are ravens We broke the bread and drank the wine from a jug that she`d been saving REPEAT CHORUS Baby`s crying and the daylight`s gone That big oak tree is groaning In rush of wind and river of song I can hear my sweetheart moaning Crying for her baby child or crying for her husband Crying for that river`s wild to take her from her loved ones REPEAT CHORUS TWICE
