Night Falls Lyrics

She warned him, warned him not to go
He said I, I’ve got to go
She whispered I, I love you so
He said I, I’ve got to go

[ Chorus ]
Night falls on the river valley
Night falls on the mines and fields
Night falls on the just and unjust
Night falls

In the next town there’s trouble, needs straightenin' out
There’s dynamite under the porch
Me and my four kids are hungry
A man’s yelling through the screen door

[ Chorus ] On they came in the morning
Shoulder to shoulder, end to end
You don’t have to speak
You just have to stand

Steve Sutton died there on the bridge
Local 393 was born
A black and white picture of the coming of the Lord
The dam is broken, the river come

[ Chorus ]

She warned him, warned him not go
He said I, I’ve got to go
She whispered I, I love you so
Night falls
Night falls
