Lyrics
Sunday morning by the riverside
My tux is too tight you're a pretty bride
The churchbells ring but the current's fast
And staring upstream I don't know if we'll last
'Cause today's the day Huckleberry Finn floats past
You know I think I'm gonna go
When his raft comes drifting 'round the bend
Gonna strip on down and jump on in
Swim out climb aboard and drift downstream
I'll ask him 'bout you and me
I'll ask him for a few spare dreams
And I'll call you from the gulf of Mexico
Take me where all lost dreamers go
Hey Huck show me what it means to flow
Take me to a hurricane
I wanna taste the salty rain
Take me to the Gulf of Mexico
Sunday morning and I kiss the bride
Photographs down by the riverside
The churchbells ring but the current's fast
And starring upstream I hear my best man laugh
'Cause today's the day Huckleberry Finn floats past
Ya know I think I'm gonna go...
