Stone River Song Lyrics
Stone River by J.J. Cale Stone River, water ain't runnin' no more
Stone River, water ain't runnin' no more
But man, he done come an' gone, polluted all around
There ain't no river runnin', no water can't be found
Stone River, water ain't runnin' no more
Fish ain't swimmin', ain't no fish around nowhere
Fish ain't swimmin', ain't nobody seem to care
They bottled up and dammed it, choked it up and canned it
Killed the life around it and stole it like a bandit
Stone River, water ain't runnin' no more
What used to be a river, now is just an empty site
Ain't no vegetation, it's just an agitation, it don't seem right
There ain't no trees a growin', no animals are showin'
What used to be a stream is now just a dream
Stone River, water ain't runnin' nowhere
Stone River, water ain't runnin'
Man, he done cut it off, and moved it all around
There ain't no river runnin', no water can't be found
Stone River, water ain't runnin' no more
They bottled up and dammed it, choked it up and canned it
Killed the life around it and stole it like a bandit
Stone River, water ain't runnin' no more
There ain't no trees a growin', no animals are showin'
What used to be a stream is now just a dream
Stone River, water ain't runnin' nowhere
Stone River, water ain't runnin' nowhere
Stone River, water ain't runnin' no more
