[Verse 1] I still dont have a single clue by the way I feel tonight And Im more than sure the flowers wont be blooming I picked up dust and I know must be runnin far behind By the banks of the yellow Verde River [Chorus] By the banks of the yellow Verde River I filled my pockets full of its gold And every stone upon the shore was glistenin And a single word could not be heard [Verse 2] Years go by while I pass the time but I just cant seem to leave Its hard enough just to keep myself from tryin I think of all the people that have gone and passed me by By the banks of the yellow Verde River [Chorus] By the banks of the yellow Verde River I filled my pockets full of its gold And every stone upon the shore was glistenin And a single word could not be heard [Verse 3] Ive seen my fair and freckled face in the water by my side Im smilin but the pain it still resides I laugh and cry and grin so wide youd think I lost my mind By the banks of the yellow Verde River [Chorus] By the banks of the yellow Verde River I filled my pockets full of its gold And every stone upon the shore was glistenin And a single word could not be heard
