[Verse 1]
You take me down to the river, hey
One more time and we're home
Your dad's old gin got me thinking that
We could go all night long

[Chorus 1]
Hey! Young pretty thing, want you teasin' my bones (I want you more)
Hey! Don't pity me, just a man out making his own

[Verse 2]
White dog in the wood with a valley man
She gave him all her love
She took my arm and my innocence
But God, what you don't know

[Chorus 2]
Hey! Young pretty thing, want you teasin' my bones (I want you more)
Hey! Don't pity me, just a man with nothing to-

[Outro]
Slipping from the fresh air
Soft, falling like a noose
Quiet like a gunshot
Fired just a bit too soon
Sterling, calling out, that fool will bring this old boy home, oh-oh

Did you want me to bury their bones?
Did you want me to bury their bones?
Did you want me to bury their bones?
