The Best Of Me

Scat…
Mama says now trouble ain’t good
So treat your man like you know that you should
A little old school is all very well
I got the feeling I think you can tell that it’s just

Too late the dye has been cast yeah it’s just too late
Miss good thing has passed
Lover please come ’til the morning sun and…

Chorus
Take me down to the river darlin’
A little romance by the sea
Show me a good time I can tell you
You’ll get the best of me
Scat…

Hear me when shackles are tight
I’m more inclined to really put up a fight
The heavy heavy load is long
Can’t he see that something is wrong but it’s just

Too late the damage is done yeah it’s just too late
The moment has come
I know I’m sure I need somethin’ more…

Chorus
So take me down to the river darlin’
A little romance by the sea
Show me a good time I can tell you
You’ll get the best of me
Scat…

Yeah it’s too late the wrestle is done
It’s a mind break that’s been coming on
Taking a ride to be satisfied…

Chorus
Oh take me down to the river darlin’
A little romance by the sea
Show me a good time I can tell you

Oh take me down to the river darlin’
A little romance by the sea
Show me a good time I can tell you
You’ll get the best of me
Scat…
Scat…
