Water Under the Bridge

They baptized me one fine day Down at the river's edge All my sins are washed away Like water under the bridge I had a little girl and her eyes were blue She lived just over the ridge Her love ran deep and her love ran true Like water under the bridge Sailin' away on a paper boat As far as I can go All the way to New Orleans And the Gulf of Mexico River run clear and the river run clean And the river run rough sometime The river run wild and it run serene Just like a friend of mine Come tie my troubles in a gunnysack And throw 'em over the edge Sailin' away and I won't be back Like water under the bridge Sailin' away on a paper boat As far as I can go All the way to New Orleans And the Gulf of Mexico now You might be a saint, you might be a sinner You might be Billy The Kid You might crap out or roll a winner It's water under the bridge I'm sailin' away on a paper boat As far as I can go All the way to New Orleans And the Gulf of Mexico All the way to New Orleans And the Gulf of Mexico Sailin' away on a paper boat As far as I can go
