"Salkehatchie River" - Derek Carpenter

Written by Rick Norheim and Derek Carpenter
(V1)
Four wheel drive and no city lights
Dust on the dash and heaven in sight
Outlaw country on the radio
Hoping for more than a hand to hold
Dirt road night and nowhere bound
The love we’ll be making on this side of town

(Chorus)
She knows where we’re headed, wading in deep.
Where the Salkehatchie River meets the willow trees
Laying in the sand in the pale moonlight
Rolling smoke till we burn down the night
She Knows where we’re headed, wading in deep
Where the Salkehatchie River meets the willow trees

(V2)
The water is warm and we’re about half stoned
Out of reach from that cell phone
Moonlight dancing off the leaves
Feeling the heat from the summer breeze
Lying between my knees underneath the starlight
Never wanting to ever end this night


(Chorus)
She knows where we’re headed, wading in deep.
Where the Salkehatchie River meets the willow trees
Laying in the sand in the pale moonlight
Rolling smoke till we burn down the night
She Knows where we’re headed, wading in deep
Where the Salkehatchie River meets the willow trees

(Bridge)
While I’m holding you down by the creek
My heart starts pounding and my
Knees get weak

(Chorus)
She knows where we’re headed, wading in deep.
Where the Salkehatchie River meets the willow trees
Laying in the sand in the pale moonlight
Rolling smoke till we burn down the night
She Knows where we’re headed, wading in deep
Where the Salkehatchie River meets the willow trees
Where the Salkehatchie River meets the willow trees
