Joe Purdy - Sinkin' Low Lyrics
I've been sinkin' low, I can't find my babyI've been sinkin' low, I can't find my babyI've been high and low, faces of these stone wallsDon't know where she goes, but I know that she's goneHer skin is dark and softer than a baby'sWhen she sings to me her voice is sweet as candyHer lips are rose red, as sweet as cheery wineHer eyes are green and blue, they can't make up their mindI've been sinkin' low, I can't find my babyI've been sinkin' low, I can't find my babyI've been high and low, faces of these stone wallsDon't know where she goes, but I know that she's goneWent down to the station, I thought that I would find youWith your suit case on the ground, I knew I was right behind you, yeahAs the train doors closed I saw you through the windowYou watched me as I waved; the train took you awayI've been sinkin' low, I can't find my babyI've been sinkin' low, I can't find my babyI've been high and low, faces of these stone wallsDon't know where she goes, but I know that she's goneI know that she's goneI saw that building burned down, when I got to your front lawnI thought that you'd be here, yeah, but you'd already goneI went down to the river, you hid under the waterAnd then you held your breath, yeah, and then you disappearedI've been sinkin' low, I can't find my babyI've been sinkin' low, I can't find my babyI've been high and low, faces of these stone wallsDon't know where she goes, I don't know where she goes
