That Song About the River-Don Williams

[00:00.00]That Song About The River by wap [00:10.89]I have seen the paddle wheelers [00:15.82]Rolling south on a summers' day. [00:20.33]I've seen the lovers at the guardrails [00:25.36]With stars in their lemonade [00:29.85]And I've heard the hobo's gather, [00:34.44]Heard their banjo's brace the blade. [00:38.98]Heard them sing about the river, [00:43.71]Called it the lazy man's parade. [00:48.07]Sing me that song about the river, [00:53.29]Green going away. [00:57.67]You know I always did feel like a drifter [01:02.51]'Bout this time of day. [01:19.11]Last night I stood by the highway, [01:24.07]Pretended I was on my way. [01:28.47]You know a hundred thousand headlights [01:33.77]Couldn't match the milky way [01:38.03]And when the moonlight touches the water, [01:42.90]Surely somethin' touches me [01:47.19]And I go reachin' for the river [01:52.15]Like it's reachin' for the sea. [01:56.34]So, Sing me that song about the river, [02:01.61]Green going away. [02:06.14]You know I always did feel like a drifter [02:10.99]'Bout this time of day. [02:17.64]Somethings go on forever [02:22.96]But truth don't ever stray. [02:28.01]The wind may brush the water [02:32.31]But the river won't persuade. [02:38.51]So, Sing me that song about the river, [02:44.26]Green going away. [02:48.87]You know I always did feel like a drifter [02:53.73]'Bout this time of day...
