River Man Songtext
von Sam Huber

Betty came by on her way
Said she had a word to say
′Bout things today and fallen leaves
Said she hadn't heard the news
Hadn′t had the time to choose
A way to lose, but she believes


Going to see the river man
Going to tell him all I can
'Bout the plan for lilac time
If he tells me all he knows
'Bout the way his river flows
And all-night shows in summertime

Betty said she prayed today
For the sky to blow away
Or maybe stay, she wasn′t sure
When she thought of summer rain
Calling for her mind again
She lost the pain and stayed for more


Going to see the river man
Going to tell him all I can
′Bout the ban on feeling free
If he tells me all he knows
'Bout the way his river flows
I don′t suppose it's meant for me
