last time in chorus hold out first 3 chords then strum again.
Now the night and the liquor wear off
I see your sister more clear,
Now that the sun has won the sky
Won't you sleep now, lady?
Go to sleep, baby.
No, I can't sleep now, baby...
It's true I loved her then, yes,
And you deserve far better than this mess.
It's true I told her then, forever,
But now it's you that I love always come never
Now the night and the liquor coming on
I hardly see your sister,
Now that the stars own the sky
Won't you come back, lady?
No, I won't come back, baby
For I love Rivers lately...
