Something’s wrong that my heart can’t fix
I got stuck in this big old ditch
Try to climb my way out this hole
Singing something’s wrong I just can’t control
 
Forty nights and forty days
Some survive some just washed away
And we hear that white muddy river flow
Singing something’s wrong we just can’t control
 
But cheer up brother, don’t you cry
 
We’ll understand it all in the by and by
I hear the shots ring out and it hurts my soul
Singing something’s wrong we just can’t control
 
Oh something’s wrong and I’m feeling strange
Nothing seems to be the same
And we listen to those church bells toll
Singing something’s wrong we just can’t control
