Lyrics:
Close to the river we're slowing down
The horses need water we need the ground
To light a fire and then get some rest
At dawn we'll continue our ride
praise Him
Even in my dreams my brothers
I praise Him
Yeah
He's the Lord of Lords
He will never ever ever
Let me down
He's always there
When I call His
the West
Witness to this mystery
Just past the river's edge
Innocence was lost this day
When a bullet took a life
Sanctioned by the government
Just to keep
cry
So sad for the years
That passed him by
And the wizard would sing
And the wizard would cry
So sad for the years and rivers of tears
Spilled from
Worry bout your lungs or your liver
Flawless when u come by me
I told you flush them pills to the river
Flawless when u come by me
Worry about your
A long time ago, a boy on his bike
Was driving down the road, with his dad on his side
Learning all the basics, ringing in that bell
Well, it went
They saw you by the river with me
What a joy to be fine and free
They can't stand to see you happy
Its been a while since you called my name
I asked
a moment of glory
A face comes before me
The face of my pretty Fraulein
Fraulein, Fraulein
Walk down by the river
Pretend that your hand's holding
Away by the river so clear, the ladies were winding their way
And Pharaoh's little daughter stepped down in the water
To bathe in the cool of the day
on rivers of blood
The masses are silenced by the void of their maw
The frail ones who roam the earth
Beckoned their own demise foolishly
Clawing at the air
down to my home town
Goin' down to the Greyhound station
Gonna buy me a one way fare
Good lord willin' and the creek don't rise
By tomorrow I'll be
Cadillac, horns on the hood
My buddy Frankie had his dad hook him up good
Girls smile when we roll by
They hop in the back and we cruise to the river side
it all went down
Out with the truckers and the kickers and the cowboy angels
And a good saloon in every single town
Oh, and I remember something
all went down
Out with the truckers and the kickers and the cowboy angels
And a good saloon in every single town
Oh, and I remember something you once
lost my heart
When will we know when the change is gonna come
I've got a good feeling and it's coming from the sun
Sitting on a pebble by the river
down.
Brings me down.
There's a tree by the river.
Still his leaves are dancing in the wind.
Same in good and in bad times.
Unaffected by the world that
prayed every night to the Lord up above
Singing, ?Hallelujah?
They
Used to walk, singing songs by the river
Even when she knew for sure
She'd have
not supposed to fight back, he's supposed to have thick skin,
He's supposed to lay down and die when his door is kicked in.
He's the neighborhood bully.
I've never felt sicker
Now I really can't blame em
Cause I threw up by the river
And all this wasted talent
Has got me feeling down
All this wasted
never got caught.
Down by the river on a Friday night
Pyramid of cans in the pale moonlight
Talkin' 'bout cars and dreamin' 'bout women
Never had a plan,
You can't judge the love by the lover
The sky by it's thunder
The road with no sign
You can't make the snow fall in summer
Or make him not want
When eyes closed and Life laid down en masse
The city, scarred and horrified, became a dire warning
Remembered still by my people
When the rains come
Safe on the bank my hand in his hand
Although I was small it was man to man
The river was wild and he looked down at me
And he smiled
It's a little
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
To live in a river
To live in a
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
To live in a river
To live in a
Deliver me from evil
