[ti: That Song About the River]
[length: 03:15]
[00:50.16]I have seen the paddle wheelers
[00:50.95]Rolling south on a summers’ day
[00:51.51]I’ve seen the lovers at the guardrails
[00:51.97]With stars in their lemonade
[00:52.32]And I’ve heard the hobo’s gather
[00:52.69]Heard their banjo’s brace the blade
[00:52.73]Heard them sing about the river
[00:52.92]Called it the lazy man’s parade
[00:53.17]Sing me that song about the river
[00:53.39]Green going away
[00:53.50]You know I always did feel like a drifter
[00:54.01]’Bout this time of day
[00:54.22]Last night I stood by the highway
[00:54.42]Pretended I was on my way
[00:54.60]You know a hundred thousand headlights
[00:55.29]Couldn’t match the milky way
[00:55.46]And when the moonlight touches the water
[00:55.76]Surely somethin’ touches me
[00:56.34]And I go reachin’ for the river
[00:56.51]Like it’s reachin’ for the sea
[00:57.67]So, Sing me that song about the river
[00:57.81]Green going away
[00:58.02]You know I always did feel like a drifter
[00:58.24]’Bout this time of day
[00:58.44]Somethings go on forever
[00:58.61]But truth don’t ever stray
[00:58.85]The wind may brush the water
[00:59.08]But the river won’t persuade
[00:59.23]So, Sing me that song about the river
[00:59.46]Green going away
[00:59.55]You know I always did feel like a drifter
[00:59.79]’Bout this time of day
