Climbing under a barbed wire fence by the railroad ties
climbing over
the old stone wall I am bound for the riverside
well I go to the river to soothe my mind ponder over the crazy days of my life just sit and watch the river flow
find a place on the riverbank where the green rushes grow see the wind in the willow tree in the branches hanging low
well I go to the river to soothe my mind
to ponder over the crazy days of my life watch the river flow ease my mind and my soul where I go
well I will go to the river from time to time wander over these crazy days in my mind watch the river flow where the willow branches grow by the cool rolling waters moving gracefully and slow
child itÂŽs lovely let the river take it all away the mad pace, the hurry
the troubles, the worries just the river take them all away flow away
