Same Ol' River

I wish that I cold be an Indian

On a painted pony so fast

No one could ever catch me

I get caught up in my past

I'd ride across many rivers

Too many moons to tell the times

Then I'd tell all the young Warriors

Many moons ago this was mine, all mine!

(Chorus)

Same ol' river

Same ol' Sea!

Same ol' water rushing over me

Same ol' moon

Same ol' sun!

Same ol' race that we've always run

Same ol' race that we've always run

I wish that I could be a Pirate

I'd sail the ocean blue

Way before the big liners

Started sailing them too

I'd bury most of my treasures

So I would leave a big hole

And the only real sense of pleasure (that I'd get)

Is to sail free of my soul!!!!

(repeat Chorus)

I wish that I could be a Slave

It doesn't matter what kind

I'd sing a song for fallen angels

Try and be free in my mind

Then when no one wasn't lookin'

I'd drop my heartless plow

I'd find my own contemporarys

And I'd wipe the shame from their brow!!!!

(repeat chorus)

I wish that I could be an outlaw

Runnin' from the law sometimes

No vigilantly against the seasons

But I can't help but read why

I'd always keep my revolver

Steady and fast at my side and

I'd rob a train bound for glory

Cuz I thought I needed a ride!!!!

(repeat chorus)

(add once more)

Same ol race that we've always run

So many things I ain't never done
