My mother came to Hazard
when I was just seven.
Even then the folks in town
said with prejudiced eyes.
That boy's not right...
Three years ago
when I came to know Mary.
First time that someone looked
beyond the rumours and the lies
And saw the man inside.
We used to walk down by the river
She love to watch the sun go down
We used to walk along the ri-ver
And dream our way out of this town
Solo............
No one understood
what I felt for Mary.
No one cared until the night
she went out walking alone.
And never came home..
Man with a badge
came knocking next morning.
Here was I surrounded by
a thousand fingers suddenly.
Pointed right at me..
I swear I left her by the ri-ver
I swear I left her safe and sound
I need to make it to the ri-ver
And leave this old Nebraska town.
I think about my life gone by
And how it's done me wrong.
There's no escape
for me this time
All of my rescues are gone,
long gone
Solo............
I swear I left her by the ri-ver
I swear I left her safe and sound
I need to make it to the ri-ver
And leave this old Nebraska town
when I was just seven.
Even then the folks in town
said with prejudiced eyes.
