Lyrics
River Music and Lyrics by Shelley MacLeod (BMI)
(Shellee Mac CD Track 4)
River, take me home
Oh mighty river, take me back home
I’ve served so well
And I’ve served so long
Now river, take me home
Lazy river, just rolling along
Lazy river, take me home
Well I’ve weathered storms
And I’ve tasted wind and rain
Now river, take me home
Muddy water, no longer holds me
Sparkling water, I know how it’s done
With the sun
I say, Oh lazy river
My work is done
Now river, take me home
(Instrumental)
Muddy water, no longer holds me
Sparkling, I know how it’s done
Let’s go find the sun
I say, Oh lazy river
My work is done
Now river, take me home
I say river
Take me home
