"The River in Reverse"



EC & Allen


Elvis Costello and the legendary Allen Toussaint tear it up on Letterman with a little song about a big hurricane. Click the pic above to watch.
How long does a promise last?
How long can a lie be told?
What would I take in exchange for my soul?
Would I notice when it was sold?

Wake me up
Wake me up
Wake me up with a slap or a kiss
There must be something better than this
'Cos I don't see how it can get much worse
What do we have to do to send
The river in reverse

(more lyrics here)
