In Their Own Words

“‘Rita' is a song about breaking free from the chains of alcohol. Rita is a black out drunk character that I used to morph into after too many drinks. I didn’t even know her for years until one morning when someone recounted the evenings events and Rita's character to me.” - Earleine

Lyrics

Lyrics

Let that river roar

Cutting through the valley floor

Let that river roar

Cutting through the valley floor

River hold me tight

River hold me deep

Valley open up it’s arms

In the river it will keep

Summer looked fine to me

Pale lightning burning in the sheets

Coffee on the front porch, laughing in the tub

Wondering what you were thinking of

Mountain living’s harder every year

Wasted nights just wiping off the tears

We were growing distant like silence in the trees

We just smiled and turned on the heat

Turn off that light

Pull on that door

Hand me your mouth

Tell me I’m yours

Tell me you’re mine

Tell me I’m fine

Dull out the ache in my domicile, stay a while

Where did you go drinking last night

Were you alone were you alright

I could have called you by your name

Would things have changed or stayed the same

Rita I can’t listen to you anymore

It’s my time, it’s my time

And Rita I can hear you knocking at my door

It’s my time, it’s my time
