Lyrics:
the man-made flood
River, river
Such a fine and pleasant stream
Dam you
Damn me
You've gone and drowned
All of our dreams
Reverend Clayton
Saw Adam's Mill
He's building me a cabin in the hills.
I live my lonesome life down in a valley with the factories, the rivers, and the mills.
Sometimes I can almost
could hear me when I sing
We floated on to Hanford
On a lumber boat up river
Past the fisheries and the mill towns like a stretch of future
the timber trains came rolling through the valleys and the hills
And fortunes by the board-foot came pouring from the mills
They'd roll 'em down the rivers
the eldest son was given the mill,
and the second got a donkey.
As for the youngest son,
he was given a cat
and was kicked out of the house.
What should l
In the melting snows of Ontario
Where the wind'll make you shiver
It was the month of May up in Georgian Bay
Near the mouth of the Musquash River
It was by the clear Molendinar Burn
Where it meets and runs with the river Clyde
And they tell the tale of the holy one
Who was fishing down by
a river
I fell apart to forget you
No out of the dark
But i feel better
Took it too far
Hurt my feelings
I'm learning more
A blunt to the head
Be thinking
On a Greyhound thirty miles beyond Jamestown
He saw the sun set on the Tennessee line
He looked at the young man who was riding beside him
He said
I saw you sittin' there sippin' red wine down at Causen Mills
I knew you'd prob'ly be outta my league but I though, what the hell?
Aw, what
turned around and I took a right on Saw Mill River Road
It was night but I knew I had to find
A place to go because I left my wallet
On a greyhound back
You could say that I go with the flow like a lazy river
I got so many flows like Scrufizzer
Why they acting like kids I ain’t a babysitter
Then they
MATTER
THERE'S AN OLD TRAIN TRACK BY AN OLD SAW MILL
AND STEAMBOATS RIDE THE RIVER STILL
MAGNOLIA TREES FROM LONG AGO
ALONG THE LUSH GREEN BANKS STILL GROW
window through the silent night
And saw him come to town
It was Silverado Santa
Flying ‘cross the river and through the woods
In his cherry red Chevy
hear me when I sing
We floated on to Hanford on a lumber boat up river
Past the fisheries and the mill-towns like a stretch of future graveyards
She
To the old mill
We could look into the orchard
From the window sill
We could stop
And like you always knew it would
And I've been this way
I saw it from
to the liver
I can't cry over bih when mines come with a river
Bitch my name ring bells GGC, I deliver
I knew how this shit would end when I was just a beginner
A storm roared
the rivers fell
from the right eye
landed on a trampolin
I saw a rainbow rise
with you
The mill burned
the fire warmed
all the bright
the door open
Smoking weed
And I could see my sister
Down the hall
Acting silly
She knew she was too young for you
A real nice girl
You saw me naked
And I
dollars for an old blind horse,
Well, he wouldn't go ahead and he wouldn't stand still,
So he went up and down like an old saw mill.
[Chorus]
brother wasn't really allowed to do this. We got up at 3am and began to separate the corn into three colors. And we boiled it, ran to the mill and back,
Paid five dollars for a blind old hoss;
Wouldn't go ahead, nor he wouldn't stand still,
So he went up and down like an old saw mill.
Turkey in
There are bridges over rivers
There are moments of collapse
There are drivers with their feet on the glass
You can kick but you can't get out
battle, and drove the logs like cattle
Headlong to the slaughter on untamed waters to the mill
Felt the rocking of the timber, the rolling of the river
