Artist/Band: George Jones
Lyrics for Song: The Bridge Washed Out
Lyrics for Album: George Jones [St. Clair] [2001]



(Mel Melshee - Jimmy Louis - Sandra Smith)



(The bridge washed out and I can't swim)

(And my baby's on the other side)



When I awke this a morning

The rain was a pouring down

I was gonna wed the little river girl

Just over the bridge across town.



Now, I'm a runnin' up and down the river

And my nerves are drivin' me wild

Because the bridge washed out, I can't swim

And my baby's on the other side.



Rain. oh rain, stop a fallin'

Dark clouds hurry from the sky

The preacher and my bride is a waitin'

And the weddin' bells are starting to chime.



I can't kiss and hold her

And it's driving me out of my mind

The bridge washed out and I can't swim

And my baby's on the other side.



--- Instrumental ---



Now I got one foot in the water

The other foot solid on the ground

When I try to swim that ragin' ol' river

I know if I try I'd drown.



There's not a boat around me

They walked on out with the tide

And the bridge washed out and I can't swim

And my baby's on the other side.



Rain. oh rain, stop a fallin'

Dark clouds hurry from the sky

The preacher and my bride is a waitin'

And the weddin' bells are starting to chime.



I can't kiss and hold her

And it's driving me out of my mind

The bridge washed out and I can't swim

And my baby's on the other side.



The bridge washed out and I can't swim

And my baby's on the other side...
