This River Is Wild Lyrics

The leaves are falling down on the beautiful ground

I heard a story from the man in red

He said the leaves are falling down

Such a beautiful sound

Son, I think you better go ahead

But you always hold your head up high

Cause it's a long, long, long way down

This town was meant for passing through

Boy, it ain't nothin' new

Now go and show 'em that the world stayed round

But it's a long, long, long way down

You better run for the hills before they burn

Listen to the sound of the world

Then watch it turn

I just wanna show you what I know

And catch you when the current lets you go

Or I should I just get along with myself

I never did get along with everybody else

I've been trying hard to do what's right

But you know I could stay here

All night

And watch the clouds fall from the sky

This river is wild

This river is wild...

Run for the hills before they burn

Listen to the sound of the world

Then watch it turn but shake a little

Sometimes I'm nervous when I talk and shake a little

Sometimes I hate the line I walk

I just wanna show you what I know

And catch you when the current lets you go

Or I should I just get along with myself

I never did get along with everybody else

I've been trying hard to do what's right

But you know I could stay here

All night

And watch the clouds fall from the sky

Because this river is wild

Godspeed ya, boy

This river is wild

Now Adam's taking bombs

And he's stuck on his mom

Because that bitch keeps trying to make him pray

He's with the hippie in the park

Comin' over the dark

Just trying to get some of that little girl play

You better run for the hills before they burn

Listen to the sound of the world

Then watch it turn

I just wanna show you what I know

And catch you when the current lets you go

Or I should I just get along with myself

I never did get along with everybody else

I've been trying hard to do what's right

But you know I could stay here

All night

And watch the clouds fall from the sky

The pain is hell in me tonight

Because this river is wild

Godspeed ya, boy

This river is wild

This river is wild

Godspeed ya, boy

This river is wild

Now the cars are everywhere

Face the dust at the fairground

I don't think I've ever seen so many headlights

But there's something pulling me

The circus and their crew

Well they're just passing through

Making sure that merry still goes 'round

But it's a long, long, long way down
