Town clock stopped tickin, but it aint broken
Got a problem that no one can define
While that river keeps on a-flowin
Hang on children, its a matter of time
Angry child, impatience growin
Waits with her father in that unemployment line
While that river goes on a-flowin
Hang on darlin, its a matter of time
Scarecrow watchin years of growin
With floods of asphalt creepin closer each time
While that river goes on a-flowin
Hang on brother, its a matter of time
Sparrow, shes sleepin with now way of knowin
Whats goin on inside those telephone lines
Below, that river keeps on a-flowin
Hang on sister its a matter of time
Some say God created man, his likeness showin
I do believe theyve got it backwards this time
Somehow that river goes on a-flowin
Hang on children, its a matter of time
Tainted river flows to the ocean
That coughs up on the shore its poisonous brine
Why dont that river just stop a-flowin
Hang on children, its a matter of time
