Stone River

Stone River Lyrics

Stone River, water ain't runnin' no more
Stone River, water ain't runnin' no more

But man, he done come an' gone, polluted all around
There ain't no river runnin', no water can't be found

Stone River, water ain't runnin' no more

Fish ain't swimmin', ain't no fish around nowhere
Fish ain't swimmin', ain't nobody seem to care

They bottled up and dammed it, choked it up and canned it
Killed the life around it and stole it like a bandit

Stone River, water ain't runnin' no more

What used to be a river, now is just an empty site
Ain't no vegetation, it's just an agitation, it don't seem right
There ain't no trees a growin', no animals are showin'
What used to be a stream is now just a dream

Stone River, water ain't runnin' nowhere
Stone River, water ain't runnin'

Man, he done cut it off, and moved it all around
There ain't no river runnin', no water can't be found

Stone River, water ain't runnin' no more

They bottled up and dammed it, choked it up and canned it
Killed the life around it and stole it like a bandit

Stone River, water ain't runnin' no more

There ain't no trees a growin', no animals are showin'
What used to be a stream is now just a dream

Stone River, water ain't runnin' nowhere
Stone River, water ain't runnin' nowhere

Stone River, water ain't runnin' no more
