George Jones Bridge Washed Out Lyrics

Bridge Washed Out Lyrics

(The bridge washed out and I can't swim and my baby's on the other side)

When I awke this a morning the rain was a pouring down

I was gonna wed the little river girl just over the bridge across town

Now I'm a runnin' up and down the river and my nerves are drivin' me wild

Because the bridge washed out I can't swim and my baby's on the other side

Rain oh rain stop a fallin' dark clouds hurry from the sky

The preacher and my bride is a waitin' and the weddin' bells are starting to
chime

I can't kiss and hold her and it's driving me out of my mind

The bridge washed out and I can't swim and my baby's on the other side

[ guitar ]

Now I got one foot in the water the other foot solid on the ground

When I try to swim that ragin' ol' river I know if I try I'd drown

There's not a boat around me they walked on out with the tide

And the bridge washed out and I can't swim and my baby's on the other side

Rain oh rain stop a fallin'...

The bridge washed out and I can't swim and my baby's on the other side
