Lyrics
There's a bullet in the gun, the gun went missing
Suspicion blew up like a shotgun shell
Zipping your lips, keep the truth in prison
Gonna throw away the key like you can't make bail
The cat's in the bag, the bag's in the river
And the river runs deep and the deep stays down
Better dot your "I's", the lie's getting bigger
Don't lead 'em to the needle in the haystack
The deep stays down
The deep stays down
The river runs deep and the deep stays down
The deep stays down
The deep stays down
The river runs deep and the deep stays-
I, I thought I told you
I thought I told you that the deep stays-
I, I thought I told you
The river runs deep and the deep stays down
The trap got sprung, I read it in the paper
And the paper got read all over this town
The jury's still hung, got a snake oil savior
Who's trying catch a fox in the henhouse now
The deep stays down
The deep stays down
The river runs deep and the deep stays down
The deep stays down
The deep stays down
The river runs deep and the deep stays-
I, I thought I told you
I thought I told you that the deep stays-
I, I thought I told you
The river runs deep and the deep stays down
I, I thought I told you
I thought I told you that the deep stays-
I, I thought I told you
I thought I told you that the deep stays-
I, I thought I told you
I thought I told you that the deep stays-
I, I thought I told you
I thought I told you that the deep stays-
The deep stays down
The deep stays down
The river runs deep and the deep stays down
The deep stays down
The deep stays down
The river runs deep and the deep stays-
Pray for rain, it's a bone dry summer
Been sweating like a mother and the sun just beats
Who they gonna blame?
Who's a-gonna pay for every single secret that the river don't keep?
