Grandma Lott was a wise old soul, givin me advice by the river shore. Take a pan, wash it with sand, make a hole so you can see the land. Everynight we'd sit and pray, just tryin'a wash all my sins away. I guess it didnt work out alright cause im addicted to the bottle and I love to fight.
Thats the day that the Devil came to the river. Thats the day that the Devil came to the river. Thats the day that ill remember forever.
Well she told me one day son, youll become the man that youve been dreamin of, well I took her words to heart, but never finished what I couldnt start. Ended up just the same im a drunkard and a sinner that just couldnt change.
Thats the day that the Devil came to the river. Thats the day that the Devil came to the river. Thats the day that ill remember forever.
Well that Devil came to me, but never in the way I thought Id see. He came all bottled up it was a hundred proof I couldnt get enough, and I live my life in sin now its a bottled up version of hell im in.
Thats the day that the Devil came to the river. Thats the day that the Devil came to the river. Thats the day that ill remember forever.
