Creek Waltz
I had a lover
Called me insane
Left me to recover
At a creek to be named
My friends told me I stole I believe that I sold Nobody's got time
For a poor brothers mind
You pass the ground Where loving's been found You been gone before
Still at the same door
Now you know of the time And its just one more line You've seen on the shore You've seen on the shore
Gambling my name
Is a lovely game
Its one on the toss
And I've earned who I've lost
Waiting for another Ship to roll in
Is the cost and I've paid A man is a maid
You pass the ground Where loving's been found You been gone before
Still at the same door
Now you know of the time And its just one more line You've seen on the shore You've seen on the shore
She turned round my mind A thousand more times
Till I swam to the shore And I begged for the score And she answered my snare With a wisp of her hair And I fell to the floor
Of the creek
Where I draw
The troubles of mine
And its just one more line
I've been a fool
For such a long time Well its been
An awful long time.
