Same Ol' River Lyrics

Same Old River

I wish that I could be an indian
on a painted pony so fast
no one could ever catch me
or get caught up in my past
I抎 ride and cross many rivers
use many moons to tell time
and I抎 tell all the young warriors
(many moons ago this was mine all mine

same old river same old sea
same old water rushing over me
same old moon same old sun
same old race that we抳e always run
I wish that I could be a pirate
and sail the ocean blue
way before the big liners
started sailing there too
I抎 bury most of my treasure
so I wouldn抰 leave a big hole
and the only real sense of pleasure I抎 geJeff Black - Same Ol' River - http://motolyrics.com/jeff-black/same-ol-river-lyrics.html
is that I would sail free in my soul

I wish that I could be a slave y抋ll
it really wouldn抰 matter what kind
I抎 sing a song for fallen angels
and try to be free in my mind
then when no one was looking
I抎 drop my harness and plow
I抎 find my old contemporaries
and wipe the shame from their brow
I wish that I could be an outlaw
riding from the laws of time
an old vigilante against the seasons
that I can抰 help but rewind
I抎 always keep my revolver
steady and fast at my side
and I慸 rob a train bound for glory
if I thought I needed a ride
