River's Invitation Songtext
von Ernie Andrews

I′ve been all over this country
And I've painted every town
Tryin′ to find my baby
But nobody's seen her 'round
Now you know just where I′m headin′
If my baby can't be found

I spoke, I spoke to the river
And the river spoke back to me
And it said, "You look so lonely
You look filled with misery
And if you can′t find your little baby
Come on, come on, make your home with me"


Well, I don't, I, I don′t wanna leave her
Because I know she's still alive
Well, and one day, one day, one day I′m gonna find her
And I'm gonna take her for a ride
And we're gonna live our life together
In a home amongst the tide

Well, I don′t, I don′t wanna leave her
Because I know she's still alive
One day, one day, one day I′m gonna find her
I'm gonna take her for a ride
And we′ll live our life together
In a home amongst the tide

In a home amongst the tide and night and light
