lyrics

Well, the weather’s far too cold
If the banks stay firm and hold, we’re safe here
If the levee starts to burst
We best expect the worst and race, dear

Oh, I need this bed to float now
Take my leave, go on and row down stream
Just leave me be

Oh, the river gonna bring me down
Oh, the river gonna bring me down


Well, the weather starts to change
As I put that mountain range behind me
As I drifted through the port
I lost the fleeting thought they’d find me

Oh, each day this river widens
Oh, I’d see the change inside her now
If I turned around

Oh, the valley gonna pull me in
Oh, the valley gonna pull me in


Never saw a sign of shore
‘Til I hit the ocean floor and lay there
Though boring half the time
I’ve more than half a mind to stay there

Oh, these skies are growing dark now
Seas will rise and fall, this tide we ride
It rules us all

Oh, the thunder gonna roll on in
Oh, the thunder gonna roll on in
