[00:02.00]Tim Mcgraw - Between the River & Me
[00:12.38]I was fifteen when my daddy died, 
[00:15.16]mama worked two jobs just to get by
[00:18.10]Seemed like a blessing when Harley came around 
[00:21.06]so she took his name but I had my doubts
[00:24.26]Didn't take long for his drinking ways 
[00:29.25]to start showing up on mama's face
[00:32.36]One violent night hiding under my bed 
[00:35.31]I swore that he wouldn't see another sunset
[00:38.44]Next day I followed him down to the riverbank
[00:42.79]I knew one of us wouldn't walk away
[00:49.85]I might have had a plan but he didn't know it
[00:53.07]I might have been scared but I didn't show it
[00:56.10]That's all between the river and me
[01:01.22]With the current and the rocks it could have been misty
[01:05.22]He might have been sober but I brought the whiskey
[01:08.07]That's all between the river and me
[01:14.07]
[01:17.41]I walked up to him and I said his name
[01:19.79]Just so he could see the look on my face
[01:22.82]We stood eye to eye and toe to toe
[01:25.57]When I told him that he wasn't gonna come back home
[01:28.73]He raised his fist to me but I didn't flinch
[01:33.79]I said 'I ain't your son you son of a bitch'
[01:40.10]I might have had a knife in my back pocket
[01:43.57]I might have pulled it out before he saw it
[01:46.54]That's all between the river and me
[01:51.73]I might have had a gun but I didn't fire it
[01:55.48]He might have tried to yell but I kept him quiet
[01:58.42]That's all between the river and me
[02:03.89]That's all between the river and me
[02:09.71]
[02:41.83]Sheriff came knocking on our front door
[02:44.68]They said they found his body by the reservoir
[02:47.58]Bottle in his shirt and liquor in his blood
[02:50.59]He must have fallen in the river and he never came up
[02:53.68]There might have been blood but they never saw it
[02:58.61]Just a little mud on the living room carpet
[03:01.80]That's all between the river and me
[03:07.18]Well after what he done there ain't no wonder
[03:10.62]I can't remember how long I held him under
[03:13.83]That's all between the river and me
[03:19.43]That's all between the river and me
[03:25.09]That's all between the river and me
[03:31.30]That's all
[03:34.09]That's all
[03:35.40]
