No one’s gonna go home tonight
The bridge is broke, the bridge is broke
I’ll buy you another drink tonight
The bridge is broke, the bridge is broke
We’re gonna be here ‘til the morning light
The bridge is broke, the bridge is broke
The veterans rest on the bottom tonight
The bridge is broke, the bridge is broke
Water save me from Death’s Door
The river runs through in the corridor
What waits there on the other side
Raise up the bridge, I’m gonna ride
Ship smashed into the bridge of steel
The bridge of steel, the bridge of steel
The captain lost control of the steerin’ wheel
The steering wheel, the steering wheel
Bridge hang down from the river shore
The river shore, the river shore
The ship sink down to the river floor
The river floor, the river floor
Water save me from Death’s Door
The river runs through in the corridor
What waits there on the other side
Raise up the bridge, I’m gonna ride
Rise from the bottom of the riverbed
The riverbed, the riverbed
See Big John all glowin’ red
Glowin’ red, glowin’ red
Smell the fire as he starts to blow
Starts to blow, starts to blow
Threads all vine as he starts to sew
Starts to sew, starts to sew
Water save me from Death’s Door
The river runs through in the corridor
What waits there on the other side
Raise up the bridge, I’m gonna ride
Everybody’s gonna go home tonight
Home tonight, home tonight
I’ll buy you another drink tonight
Drink tonight, drink tonight
You’re gonna be home by the morning light
The morning light, the morning light
The veteran’s bridge on the river tonight
The river tonight, the river tonight
Water save me from Death’s Door
The river runs through in the corridor
What waits there on the other side
Raise up the bridge, I’m gonna ride
The river save me from Death’s Door
Water runs through in the corridor
What waits there on the other side
Raise up the bridge, I’m gonna ride
