Lyrics:

Yeah, I'm gonna tell you a story
That you don't want to hear
Baby, I wanna tell you a story
One that you don't want to hear
Because it's about you, and you're losin', baby
And the end is drawing near

Well, if you don't understand
There's no reason for me to stay on
Yeah, if you don't understand, baby
There's no reason for me to stay on
And I believe in you, woman
But I can't make a stand, so gather 'round

Yeah, your mind's been leavin'
And your body's stayin' here
Oh I knew it
Yeah, your mind's been leavin' for a long time
But your body's been stayin' here
And all this talkin' I've been doin', baby
There ain't nothin' you can hear

Yeah, there's no flowers by this river
And there's no grass growin' around
Yeah, there's no flowers by this river
And there's no grass growin' 'round
Yeah, there's no water down by this river
And there's nobody makin' a sound

Baby I'm just leavin'
Oh yeah
