RIVER SONG
They dammed up this river, they locked it away It used to flood these banks each spring Oh, oh the river she run They dammed up this river, and got it under control Now it doesn't do anything Oh, oh and the river she run
But sometimes I wish that the rain would come down And break that wall, break it in two And I would see that river run Like it used to do, like it used to do
And they dammed up a people with a reservation lock They used to camp these banks each fall Oh, oh the river she run They took what they wanted, and got them under control Now they don't stop here at all Oh, oh and the river she run
But sometimes I wish that the rain would come down And break that wall, break it in two And I would see that river run Like it used to do, like it used to do
'Cause I can hear that river whisper on the bridge sometimes And I can see it in a guarded face It says time always works for a river How long can you keep it in place
But I can't wait, no...
Sometimes I wish that the rain would come down And break that wall, break it in two And I would see that river run Like it used to do
And I would see that river run Like it used to do Like it used to do
And they dammed up the river But oh, oh the river she run
