I've seen you roll
I've seen you die
I've seen you washed out
I've seen you dry
I took a drink
When our water was gone
I felt your kiss
when we knew it was wrong
But you're never at a loss for words
And the ones you say you don't take back
Bitter Branch
I've seen your kind
Bear away wood
'til Southern veins
Run red with mud
When you flood
You're clear as gin
Your heart's too cold
To wash away sin
You're never at a loss for words
And the ones you say you don't take back
Bitter Branch
You've got a soul
That only means well
Don't know the truth
In the stories you tell
Pillar to post
Just send it down the line
'Cause the work ain't done
While the sun still shines
You're never at a loss for words
And the ones you say you don't take back
Bitter Branch
