I broke you in the canyon
I drowned you in the lake
You, a snake that I would trample
Only thing I’d not embrace
Oh, you couldn’t dam that river
And maybe I don’t give a damn anyway
So you couldn’t dam that river
And it washed me so far away
I pushed and then you stumbled
I kicked you in the face
You stare at me so hollow
Got to keep that killin’ pace
Oh, you couldn’t dam that river
And maybe I don’t give a damn anyway
So you couldn’t dam that river
And it washed me so far away
I burned the place around you
I hit you with a rake
You piss upon my candle
So proving you’re a fake
Oh, you couldn’t dam thar river
And maybe I don’t give a damn anyway
So you couldn’t dam that river
And it washed me so far away
