Weighted Down by the Possessions Weighted down by the gun Weighted down by the river For you to come My darling, you're darning my action Of when three months I was gone But whose thoughts were you darning, darling While I've been gone so long? Weighted down by possessions Weighted down by the gun Weighted down by the river For you to come My best friend, do your ear a drill Set eyes guilty of sin Said my being gone was the best thing for you But the truth, it all comes true For me and my kid It wasn't the best thing for me But it was the best for you Weighted down by decision Weighted down by the gun Weighted down by the river For you to come Guitar solo Weighted down by possession Weighted down by the gun Weighted down by the river For you to come While I sat there wondering You thought their eyes were healed And I had the honor Of watching everything you did So now I come with words of pain To bring you news of life If you can't find your woman Don't take another's wife Weighted down by possessions Weighted down with a gun Weighted down by the river For you to come Guitar solo
