Randall Bramblett - Dead In The Water

I run out of gas on the Huey Long Bridge
And the moon was drownin in the mud
Don't think about walkin back to town
Don't think about jumpin it's too far down
Dead in the water
Hidin in a whisper tree
Preacher on the corner
Shoutin to an empty street
Mama been flyin
Drinkin that benzedrine
She's scrubbin the floor with a toothbrush
But she just can't get it clean
Dead in the water
Hidin in a whisper tree
Man on the corner
Shoutin to an empty street
Hey hey
Hidin in the saw grass
Drinkin from a shot glass
While the black wind howls
While the police scowl
Starin at the night sky
While you're makin up a good lie
When the lights come on you got to be strong
Better think of something sweet
'Fore they put you in the back seat
Dead in the water
