She comes on like a whisper of smoke
Gentle pushing on a summer's eve
I'll never know all of her
For she's ever-changing as the moments pass
And her kiss is worth a thousand little tunes
May she grow strong 'til the end of days
The twists and bends of the way she moves
Fall soft against my open palms
What I love most is the touch of her washing o'er my body on a restless day
And her kiss is worth a thousand little tunes
May she grow strong 'til the end of days
Her eyes reflect the color of the sky
As her hips silhouettin' in the dying sun
Water and man, when the morning come
I can hear her voice rushing by my side
And her kiss is worth a thousand little tunes
May she grow strong 'til the end of days
Well I'll stand by her 'til I can't no more
Love her ever running down that muddy road
She does smile back at me, for she knows I'll never stay away
And her kiss is worth a thousand little tunes
May she grow strong 'til the end of days
And the hard times may come, as the high waters roll
And our love travels on
As we dance this love lets me step on down
The state border line
And her kiss is worth a thousand little tunes
May she grow strong 'til the end of days
And her kiss is worth a thousand little tunes
May she grow strong 'til the end of days
