Walk down the river don't stop now keep on walking
|
Walk down the river 'till you make it to the bright blue sea
|
|
This is what she said to me whispered in my ear
|
A man by the river is a man without fear
|
One step forward, two steps back keep stepping
|
Put your foot forward 'cause you're on the right track
|
|
Chorus
|
|
Walked two days and the ground got hot
|
by the first turn I could hear gunshots
|
staggered in the weeds like a fool in the bush
|
choked in the dirt and a voice said "push"
|
Lost my way five times in the rain
|
went three miles for the inches that I gained
|
kids threw rocks and the cars slowed down
|
people yelled from the window "fool turn around!"
|
|
Chorus
|
|
Buildings leaning over trying to break my back
|
Sky wants to simmer and the Earth wants to crack
|
let me tell you something, I can hear the sea calling
|
so I just move it out like a baby crawling
|
|
Chorus
