Lyrics

Whitewater
I was raised on an old dirt farm
And the day I turned eighteen
I signed aboard a sailing ship
And I left my family

There's a girl back in my hometown
Who said she'd wait for me
But it's been so long sine I've been gone
Now our love is a memory -Whitewater roll on me

There's a storm brewing in my heart
Just like a raging sea
The tears I cried could fill an ocean wide
White water roll on me
White water roll on me

Now the waves are as high as a mountain side
I'm afraid they'll bury me in the old salt brine
Till the end of th time at the bottom of a cold dark sea

How I wish I was homeward bound
To that farm in Tennessee,

I'd get down and I'd kiss the ground
And I'd pray that I'd never see
Whitewater roll on me
Whitewater roll on me

There's a storm brewing in my heart
Just like a raging sea
The tears I cried could fill an ocean wid
White water roll on me
White water roll on me
