This River Is Wild

But it's a long, long, long way down
I just want to show you what I know
Sometimes I hate the line I walk
He's with the hippie in the park coming over the dark
So then I think you better go ahead
This river is wild
Now Adam's taking bombs
Just trying to get some of that little girl play
I've been trying hard to do what's right
Well they're just passing through

Godspeed you boy
Listen to the sound of the world
And catch you when the current lets you go
Listen to the sound of the world
This river is wild
Because this river is wild
And watch the clouds fall from the sky
This town was meant for passing through
Or should I just get along with myself?

Godspeed you boy

And catch you when the current lets you go
And pain is hell in me tonight
Making sure that merry still goes round
Then watch it turn
And watch the clouds fall from the sky
But shake a little
And watch the clouds fall from the sky
Because this river is wild
Godspeed you boy
He said the leaves are falling down
Run for the hills before they burn
I've been trying hard to do what's right
Or should I just get along with myself?
And catch you when the current lets you go
I just want to show you what I know
I just want to show you what I know
And he's stuck on his mom
But you always hold your head up high
I shake a little
But it ain't nothing new
The circus and the crew
But you know I could stay here all night
Because that bitch keeps trying to make him pray

Listen to the sound of the world
I never did get along with everybody else
Sometimes I'm nervous when I talk
Now the cards are everywhere
I heard a story from the man in red
This river is wild

This river is wild
Now go and show them that the world stayed round
Or should I get along with myself?
But you know I could stay here all night
But there's something pulling me
Then watch it turn
I never did get along with everybody else

'Cause it's a long, long, long way down

I don't think I ever seen so many headlights
This river is wild

I never did get along with everybody else
This river is wild
Such a beautiful sound
Face in dust, the fairground
You better run for the hills before they burn
You better run for the hills before they burn
Ive been trying hard to do what's right
Then watch it turn
But you know I could stay here all night
