God Willin' & The Creek Don't Rise

Caroline,



In the mountains the sun sets up in ribbons so high,

it's like I don't never wanna get old.

.. don't ever wanna die. We been seein' steady rain,

'bout to drive us all insane,

nearly lost a few head up in the pines.

At night, when some of the boys get to talking up their

girls back home, you know I tell 'em there ain't none

as fine as mine. I can hear old Chapman sayin' come

morning we'll break the range, be pushin' hard now for the plains.



I close my eyes and I can see you.

.. I close my eyes and I can feel you here.

God willin' an the creek don't rise,

I'll be home again before this time next year.

Though I fear this fever won't break...



-All my love
