Hey you, pushing the river With the world there on your shoulders Don't you remember a single thing The good book told you? Hey you, treading the water With your head dipping out of the clouds Sinking down, down, down, down Waving to the old crowd And they send these things to try us And try us they do (oh oh) Don't push the river, don't push the river Don't push the river, let it carry you I know that I'm a fine one To be talking this way I've been dragging the whole darn world Behind me all day No-one said it would be easy And they never warned how hard And I've been licking brand new wounds And tending old scars And they send these things to try us And try us they do (oh oh) Don't push the river, don't push the river Don't push the river, let it carry you Over the endless troubles, over the trying times These are the words of wisdom from a restless mind Don't push the river, don't push the river Don't push the river, let it carry you Don't push the river, don't push the river Don't push the river, let it carry you
