Down Where The River Bends Lyrics - Dwight's Used Records - Dwight Yoakam

Its hard to keep tears out of my eyes 

This might be our last goodbye 

Our country calls you to defend a great land 

So do your part just like a man 

Down where the river bends 

With god's help we'll meet again 

Under the same old sycamore tree 

Proud of each other and the land of the free 

I go down to the ocean blue 

Its just as close as I came to you 

This old ocean might keep us apart 

But it won't keep you dear out of my heart

Down where the river bends 

With god's help we'll meet again 

Under the same old sycamore tree 

Proud of each other and the land of the free 

If the worst should happen and the poppies should wave 

Over your far distant, lonely grave 

All the rest of my life I'll spend in prayer 

I'll meet you in heaven there'll be no war there
