1
Can't lose the taste of this river mud,
2
Black water in my lungs.
3
They say you can't step in the same river twice
4
Well I've been stepping in this river seems like most my life.
5
So sharpen up those dragging hooks
6
Tie that sheep shank tight
7
Cast into the river boys
8
We're dragging for those lost years tonight.
9
There's a man whose lost his wife
10
Said she'd be home by eight,
11
But that was well on three weeks ago
12
Now he's walking those banks searching for clues to her fate.
13
See that girl she's lost her boy
14
Flash flood stole him away.
15
Now she keeps a vigil on that suspension bridge
16
Praying for that river to return him one day.
17
So sharpen up those dragging hooks
18
Tie that clove hitch tight
19
Cast into the river boys
20
We're dragging for lost love tonight.
21
Can't lose the taste of this river mud
22
Black water in my lungs.
23
They say even the weariest river in the end will find the sea
24
But here among the cat tails all we discuss is breaking free
25
So sharpen up those dragging hooks
26
Tie that sheep shank tight
27
Cast into the water boys
28
We're dragging for lost souls tonight.
