Roll on rushing river,
Roll on your way.
Don't you tell nobody
How I been living these days.
When I left my home
I do not know what I thought that I would find.
There's aching in my bones, mama
And there's trouble in my mind....
On the shores of Vicksburg
They had a battle long ago....
On a trail in California
There were some people lost in snow....
I keep on pushing forward, mama
I keep trying to make a stand.
And when my neighbor's down and reaching up
I guess i try and lend a hand....
For the journey home
Is light years long,
Heaven is farther than it seems.
O, the stars go twinkling on
Life is but a dream....
Roll on rushing river,
Roll across the county line.
I think I done my best mama,
But it's hard to tell sometimes.
I'm looking to the west now
At the path ahead of me...
Some people carved a trail out there one time,
All the way out to the sea...
And the ocean floor
Is clean and cold
And black beneath the blue and green.
Shimmering, we swim along,
Gently down the stream....
O, you rushing river,
Well you roll so goddamned fast...
The days go drifting by
And the hours flutter past.
I think from time to time
Of all the things that I have made...
I'll find myself a quiet spot,
And lay me down in the shade....
As the mystery
Goes twirling on
Above the trees and galaxies.
And to me
It sings it's song
Light and merrily.....
