What Are The Lyrics For Stono River Blues By Shovels & Rope?
I moor my boat on the old Stono
That river take you anywhere That you wanna go Sail on the Ashley or the Edisto But don't get caught in the mud When the tide gets low There's so much rivers Where I live down south The ocean pours outta The river's mouth And the fish don't care If they're fresh or brine When theyr're frying in that cast iron Skillet of mine I moor my boat in the old Stono That river take you anywhere That you wanna go Sail on the Ashley or the Edisto But don't get caught in the mud When the tide gets low I gotta sister on Wadmalaw She floats all day in the Ledenwah One day she left the chickens in charge And floated off to Heaven on a party barge I moor my boat in the old Stono That river take you anywhere That you wanna go Sail on the Ashley or the Edisto But don't get caught in the mud When the tide gets low The mayor borrowed All of the money he need To put in a bridge With deliberate speed Then they cut down the oaks With a tip of his hat And God will never Forgive him for that Jasmine grown wild, High in the trees Smells like Heaven But it grows like a weed You don't need much To be happy, The boat cost money But the shrimp is free Rebellion runs in the blood Round here Runs in the water and earth Down here It was a conflagration That first caught fire On the the 9th of 9, 1739 I moor my boat in the old Stono That river take you anywhere That you wanna go Sail in the Ashley or the Edisto But don't get caught in the mud When the tide gets low |
