Verde River
[Verse 1]
I still don't have a single clue by the way I feel tonight
And I'm more than sure the flowers won't be blooming
I picked up dust and I know must be runnin' far behind
By the banks of the yellow Verde River

[Chorus]
By the banks of the yellow Verde River
I filled my pockets full of its gold
And every stone upon the shore was glistenin'
And a single word could not be heard

[Verse 2]
Years go by while I pass the time but I just can't seem to leave
It's hard enough just to keep myself from tryin'
I think of all the people that have gone and passed me by
By the banks of the yellow Verde River

[Chorus]
By the banks of the yellow Verde River
I filled my pockets full of its gold
And every stone upon the shore was glistenin'
And a single word could not be heard
[Verse 3]
I've seen my fair and freckled face in the water by my side
I'm smilin' but the pain it still resides
I laugh and cry and grin so wide you'd think I lost my mind
By the banks of the yellow Verde River

[Chorus]
By the banks of the yellow Verde River
I filled my pockets full of its gold
And every stone upon the shore was glistenin'
And a single word could not be heard
