Lyrics:
my pillow from a stone,
I will walk alone by the black muddy river,
And sing me a song of my own,
I will walk alone by the black muddy river,
There's a river runs through this valley
Cold and deep and black
Comin' like a tombstone shadow across my back
Trouble river, six foot high
river.
Black was the night and starry.
I loosened off my garments
And let forth my hair,*
In the reedy river,
In the reedy river.
Sadly we mourned
chiu...
Translated:
River, roaring river, guard our homes in safety,
God has kept the black wolf from our lamb, our Lady.
God has kept the black wolf
I jumped in the river, what did I see?
Black-eyed angels swam with me
A moon full of stars and astral cars
And all the figures I used to see
I jumped in the river, what did I see?
Black-eyed angels swam with me
A moon full of stars and astral cars
And all the figures I used to see
the wind that sucked me through it
She's a river and she's turning there in front of me
Stand back get back, she'll paint your blue skies black
She
It's a subway chancer, a question with no answer
Come meet me by the river, see how time it flows
I'll meet you by the river, see how time it flows
And sing me a song of my own
Black muddy river roll on forever
I don't care how deep or wide
If you got another side
Roll muddy river, roll muddy river
Jet black river, take me on
What's in between is waiting on me
Revealing caffeine ghosts
And giving up its gasoline
I think I see the stacks of my
the river, carry coal to the city in white dock liners.
Happiness on the uptown side at my party in the morning tide.
Oo, la, la, la, black patch. Oo, la,
river, roll muddy river
Black muddy river roll
Black muddy river
Roll on forever
I don't care how deep or wide
If you got another side
Roll muddy
Black river
Black river
Black river
The story?s still unfolding and like the river rolling
It's always moving like a tide
Seemingly unchanging
But
A go roll, a go roll, a go roll.
Roll, roll, roll,Jordan River a go roll
My black brothers and sisters
Waiting up on I and I come forth home,
And there we were, screamin', "Black Lives Matter" in the crowd
By the Old Man River, and I saw you saw who I am
God, I wish I was with my father
He could
I got frostbitten in the winter
Ice skating on the river
With my pretty little black-eyed girl
She'd make your darn toes curl just to see her yeah
I
She in her boat long hours
He in his royal plumage
She threw him some flowers
In the reedy river
In the reedy river
Black was the night
And starry
She
end highway
Ain't no love in Oklahoma
Just the whistle of a long black train
You'll know when it's comin' for ya
Ridin' in on the wind and rain
skull instead
Down by the river
Down by the river
Down by the river, the banks will soon be black and dead
Down by the river
Down by the river
a stranger, lying there beside me
Moving like a river, oh...
I was so afraid that I was gonna lose you
That I could never have you here in my arms
But I
And sweeter the river, into which love grows
I have cried for you darling
Are you coming back to me?
For the particles are joyous
As they aligned on your
press for the water, press for the river, press for the rain
We press for the water, press for the river, press for the pain
the promise of the Promised Land
I'm tired of this river, these nothin' nights
I'm small towned out, I need city lights
So long Allegany, so long Olean
I need
