Boy what you doin’ just talkin’ to the trees?

[Verse 1] Well I was walkin’ one night, stars hangin’ low in the sky Yeah I was walkin’ real slow, with that moonlight in my eye Came across this old bridge, and man it made me sigh [Verse 2] Steel and timber bones, with a soul deep and wide Every footstep echoed like a ghost still tryin’ to hide That bridge didn’t move—but it sure came alive [Chorus] Yeah that cool bridge, where my worries get drowned Where the blues feel warm and the silence is sound That cool bridge, man I walk it proud It don’t ask questions… just keeps holdin’ me down [Verse 3] Met a girl on that bridge, summer dress in the breeze She said, “Boy what you doin’ just talkin’ to the trees?” I said, “This bridge don’t judge me—no, it just lets me be.” [Bridge Verse] (spoken aside) Ain’t no cars, no tolls, not even a name on a sign But when I cross that bridge, I feel like time’s all mine It’s got rust, got cracks—but that bridge? It shines. [Chorus] Yeah that cool bridge, where my worries get drowned Where the blues feel warm and the silence is sound That cool bridge, man I walk it proud It don’t ask questions… just keeps holdin’ me down [Chorus — tag last line] Yeah that cool bridge, where my worries get drowned That cool bridge… just keeps holdin’ me down [Outro — banjo tag]
