"Red River" lyrics - TOM PETTY & THE HEARTBREAKERS

TOM PETTY & THE HEARTBREAKERS
"Red River"

She's got a 3-D Jesus in a picture frame
Got a child that she never named
She shakes a snake above her hair
Talks in tongues when there's no one there

[Chorus:]
So meet me tonight at the Red River
Where the water is clear and cold
Meet me tonight at the Red River
And look down into your soul
Look down into your soul

She's got a rosary and a rabbit's foot
A black cat bone that treats her good
A tiger tooth and a gris-gris stick
Still it don't do the trick

[Chorus]

I'm gonna walk her down to gypsy town
Find the spirit queen I've seen around
Paint her body up in mud and clay
Let the river wash it all away

[Chorus]
Look down into your soul
