The River Only Flows One Way

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Billy Bob Thornton] There's communication and compromise But the river only flows one way There's looking at things through someone else's eyes But the river only flows one way You can build a dam, cut your losses Build a bridge to get across it But at the end of the day The river only flows one way [Refrain: Warren Haynes] Oh, how could you hurt me so? [Verse 2: Billy Bob Thornton, with Warren Haynes] There's answers here and answers there But the river only flows one way So many questions floating in the air But the river only flows onе way You can change directions, you can change your mind You can changе partners, even change your crimes You can get down on your knees and pray But the river only flows one way [Refrain: Warren Haynes] Oh, how could you hurt me so? [Trumpet Solo] [Verse 3: Billy Bob Thornton] One shot answers when another shot calls But the river only flows one way One fool rises when another fool falls But the river only flows one way Jack be naughty, jack be styling Jack Ruby was the queen of diamonds But the king is here to stay And the river only flows one way [Refrain: Warren Haynes] Oh, oh How could you hurt me so? Oh, how could you hurt me so? I said oh
