Sold Down The River

Bill Monroe & His Bluegrass Boys

Where is the love that you promised neath the pine

Gone like the flowers in the fall

You crossed your heart now you're double crossing mine

You've been petending after all



I was sold down the river to a port of broken dreams

Drifting in sorrow down the stream

Sold down the river on a ship that won't return

When it anchors in the sea of broken dreams



I never dreamed that your love would grow so cold

Hiding behind the rainbow's end

You must be blind for the glitter of the gold

Gold that can never find a friend



* Refrain



You'll never know what it means to sit and cry

After your heart is broken too

Someday you'll learn and your soul will burn and die

When some one double crosses you



* Refrain
