Sometimes the river calls me
Did you put it on a train?
Did you leave it in the rain
Where did your heart go?
Or down in Mexico?
We'll share a rusty can of corn, yeah
There it goes again
Come down sometime
I jumped into this beauty
Did you put it on a train?
You cried but I don't know how
I've heard it all before
Where did your heart go?
Did you leave it in the rain
Where did your heart go?
Did you leave it in the rain
Or down in Mexico?
Did you leave it in the rain
Says, ''Put your troubles down beside me''
The slamming of the door
Did you put it on a train?
Where Sally prays
Where did your heart go?
And rock 'n' roll won't teach me
And listen to the radio
And at night it calls my name
"I love you, I love you", it says
Or down in Mexico?
By the church downtown
And drifted out of sight
Did you put it on a train?
What the river said that night
Things have always been the same
