Lyrics:
Now we hold accountable
Man in blue who shoots and throws
Another gun down by your side
Says your armed and that you fired
We all know now what we
I was born by a river, oh man, in this little old tent, oh
Just like this river, I've been running ever since
It's been a long, long time coming
streamin' down
I can hear that old preacher man say.
In loving memories we gather
In loving memories on this sad day
In loving memories forever
Until we meet
like our old man
But I saw how it made my momma cry
It was huntin' and fishin' and football games
Then it was girls, and everything changed
Fallin'
fill all my dark days with your light
They say that home is where the heart is
Yea I've heard it all before, but that could be your old man's farm
And my soul is bound for Hell."

This site suggests "And a nice young man is he".
2) PJC
this old black man
He taught me about the blues in life he laid down the facts man
I'd go to the ghetto and I witnessed poor first hand
Too bad them rich
by tha river
Uneducated and lost with no skrilla
Life as an old fella
Keep my head up and my eyes peeled
I can't stand tall
These walls help
the ships to serve you
Sailing through the sea by His command
And He has also made rivers to serve you
And He has made the sun and the moon
Both constantly
a baby to the river, Kyle William they called him
Wash the baby in the water, take away little Kyle's sin
In a whitewash shotgun shack an old man passes
John Hardy here was a desperate little man
Carried two guns every day
He shot a man on the West Virginia line
And I've seen John Hardy getting
Sparrows sit. A grOSbeak
betrays itself, by that
peculiar squeak--ary EFFECT
of SLIGHTest tinkling
measures. Soundness
pleasing ... We hear!
Does
he fashioned me a crown of clay
It’s why no one can ever take this sound away
Took me to the water sat me down to pray
And right there by the river
Oh my dear
Oh man, alright, let's get it
Alone in my room
Thinking about you
And how it would be nice
To hold you soon
As time slips by
And the days
or gunmen
(RAGS) So when man was old enough to roll
You dun know what I done then
(rags! rags! rags! rags! rags)
(rags! rags! rags! rags! rags)
How long ya
Mad topics, no you can't stop it
Like how much they paid for that rocket?
People in the hood really ain't got shit
How much got spent by
plans
Involvin' my old man
Everytime I turn by back around
Feelin' like a one man woman
Living in a two time town
Now the place I come from
People
wrong
When every day is sunshine
Everyday is sunshine
Everyday is sunshine
I was born by the river with the sunblock
Say I'm cooking up the heat so
Made a promise I shouldn’t have
with the church tower above my head
That old red had made you dance
I had to catch you by my hand
On that night, I
Jack was so proud of the man he became
Jill was in a different book on a different page
River grew up started getting a raise
Started coming up out
a river that's too wide
There ain't no jail tight enough to lock me
Ain't no man big enough to stop me
I'll be there if you ever want me by your side
So
jail tight enough to lock me
Ain't no man big enough to stop me
I'll be there if you ever want me by your side
So love me if you ever gonna love me
love
I said goodbye darling
I tried now hard enough
Well you could find me
down by that old river bend
Got a message in a bottle
I've been waiting
ground
Parked under the overpass
Quarter mile down that old dirt path
Meet up at 3 rivers bridge and climb down that old post
Jump onto the sandbar,
