without all this conversation
Everybody always wondering
How much did you get paid?
And how much did you get laid?
Sitting on the corner of the porch
Well before the bitter haste
I came way too soon, and haven't left
And looking down that old road
The bridge is high and the water's low
There's a song that I heard
it took me back to Watertown
when we moved to the Watertown
He said we'd get to Texas
Cause there's angels down there
And there's people who care
And seagulls in the humid air
I'm looking down that old road
The bridge is high and the water's low
There's a song that I heard
It took me back, it took me back
And I remember the day my momma cried
When she heard that Elvis had died
to the shaggy carpet of her own
Looking down that old road,
The bridge is high, the water's low
And just like you and me,
there's a song that I heard
You took me back, you took me back to Water
