Where The River Goes
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Yeah, I could hide in the calm
Of the eye of a storm
And never blow away
Well, I'm a young man with
A knife to my back and
Some things never seem to change
Nowhere to run to
Nowhere to hide
Sing the song or keep it inside
Bought the farm
But the farmer done died
Sing that song, sing that song inside
I wish I could live in the
Dream that I fly on tarred
And feathered wings
Well, I'm losing a game of reality dice
Where the dealer never ever pays
Nowhere to run to
Nowhere to hide
Sing the song or keep it inside
Bought the farm
But the farmer done died
Sing that song, sing that song inside
I wanna be as big as a mountain
I wanna fly as high as the sun
I wanna know what the rent's like in heaven
I wanna know where the river goes
Yeah, I could hide in the calm
Of the eye of a storm
And never blow away
Well, I'm a young man with
A knife to my back
Some things never seem to change
Nowhere to run to
Nowhere to hide
Sing the song or keep it inside
Bought the farm
But the farmer done died
Sing that song, sing that song inside
I wanna be as big as a mountain
I wanna fly as high as the sun
I wanna know what the rent's like in heaven
I wanna know where the river goes
If I was stronger
I could be a mountain range
If night was longer
Could I escape the day?
If I was stronger
I could be a mountain range
If night was longer
Could I escape the day?
Nowhere to run to
Nowhere to hide
Sing the song or keep it inside
Bought the farm
But the farmer done died
Sing that song, sing that song inside
I wanna be as big as a mountain
I wanna fly as high as the sun
I wanna know what the rent's like in heaven
I wanna know where the river goes
