This River Is Wild

Leaves are falling downOn the beautiful groundI heard a story from the man in redHe said the leaves are falling downSuch a beautiful sound soI think you better go aheadBut you always hold your head up highCause it's a long, long, long way downThis town was meant for passing throughBut it ain't nothing newNow go and show themThat the world stayed roundBut it's a long, long, long way downYou better run for the hills before they burnListen to the sound of the worldAnd watch it turnI just want to show you what I knowAnd catch you when the current lets you goOr should I just get along with myselfI never did get along with everybody elseI've been trying hard to do what's rightBut you know I could stay here all nightAnd watch the clouds fall from the skyThis river is wildThis river is wildRun for the hills before they burnListen to the sound of the worldWatch it turnBut shake a littleSometimes I'm nervous when I talkI shake a littleSometimes i hate the line I walkI just want to show you what I knowAnd catch you when the current lets you goOr should I just get along with myselfI never did get along with everybody elseIve been trying hard to do whats rightBut you know I could stay here all nightAnd watch the clouds fallFrom the skyBecause this river is wildGod speed you boyThis river is wildNow Adam's taking bombsAnd he's stuck on his momBecause that bitchKeeps trying to make him prayHe's with the hippie in the parkComing over the darkJust trying to get some of that little girl playYou better run for the hills before they burnListen to the sound of the worldBut watch it turnI just want to show you what I knowAnd catch you when the current lets you goOr should I get along with myselfI never did get along with everybody elseI've been trying hard to do whats rightBut you know I could stay here all nightAnd watch the clouds fall from the skyAnd pay this hell in me tonightBecause this river is wildGod speed you boyThis river is wildGod speed you boyThis river is wildNow the cards are everywhere face in dustThe fairgroundI don't think I ever seen so many headlightsBut there's something pulling meThe circus and the crewWell they're just passing throughMaking sure the merry still goes roundBut it's a long, long, long way down
