It's the same in every one of these Sorry river towns
River towns sorry river towns
River towns
River towns sorry river towns
River towns
Well I picked me up a bottle
To take back to the room
Then I saw a young girl standing In a doorway in the gloom
We'd hardly started talking
The old scenario
And I just let her work me over
Down by the Ohio
River towns sorry river towns
River towns
River towns sorry river towns
River towns
When I asked her if she'd like to stay
She was down my stairs so quick
I never asked what got her started
With the sorry river tricks
So I get the bottle open
But something's hit a nerve
And I'm looking in the mirror
At the face that I deserve
River towns sorry river towns
River towns
River towns sorry river towns
River towns
