Back to the River Songtext
von Susan Tedeschi

Wake in a cold sweat
Nightmare by my bed
Waiting for the rider
Wondering through my head

Cause Im a long way from home
On the highway too long
Got road dust in my mouth
I need to head down south

And get back to the river
Back to the river
Oh back to the river
Back to the river to take my time

So I can think about the little ones
Keep them in my heart
Born in a bad storm
An′t no good when we're apart

Well im miss their hugs
And chasing lighting bugs
They make me smile, but its gonna take a little while


To get back to the river,
Back to the river
Oh back to the river
Oh back to the river to take my time

Theres a full moon rising out tonight
Might make be crazy but that all right
Long as i find som peace of mine

Im going back to the river to take my time

Where there′s a campfire going
Warm breezes blowing
Mose hanging from the trees
I'll have all that i need

When i get back to the river
Oh back to the river
Back to the river
Oh back to the river

Oh back now
Oh lord i got'a got′a get back
Lord lord back now
Back to the river
Oh back to the river right now
Oh oh
