Вступление
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Watch you fade away like time I lost
Cast my sins away before the cross
Hide this weapon under that oak tree
Sittin here all day, no one will know a thing
Wonder now what my mama will say
She held your hand on our wedding day
She loved you like one of her own
Wonder how she'll cry now with you gone
Oh lord forgive me and forget I done you wrong
[Chorus]
For all that its worth, I kept that ring of her's
Didn't leave it when I left her here
At the bottom of this river, with her Bobby Dear
[Verse 2]
I found that letter in the stand
Next to the bed, written in her hand
He in was all my Bobby Dear
Today is the day I leave him standing here
I took that pistol from my side
Put it to my head, but then I thought twice
Oh lord forgive me and forget I done you wrong
[Chorus]
For all that its worth, I kept that ring of her's
Didn't leave it when I left her here
At the bottom of this river, with her Bobby Dear
[Bridge]
Her love left me all alone
So I left them together with the fishes and the stones
Praying Oh lord forgive me
Oh lord forgive me and forget I done you wrong
[Chorus]
For all that its worth, I kept that ring of her's
Didn't leave it when I left her here
At the bottom of this river, with her Bobby Dear
[Outro]
