Lyrics
Climbing under a barbed wire fence
By the railroad ties
Climbing over the old stone wall
I am bound for the riverside
Well, I go to the river to soothe my mind
Ponder over the crazy days of my life
Just sit and watch the river flow
Find a place on the riverbank
Where the green rushes grow
See the wind in the willow tree
In branches hanging low
Well, I go to the river to soothe my mind
To Ponder over the crazy days in my life
Watch the river flow
Ease my mind and soul
Where I go
Well I will go to the river from time to time
Wander over these crazy days in my mind
Watch the river flow
Where the willow branches grow
By the cool rolling waters
Moving gracefully and slow
Child, it's lovely
Let the river take it all away
The mad pace, the hurry
The troubles, the worries, the worries
Just let the river take them all away
Flow away
Flow away
Oh, oh
Writer(s): Natalie Merchant
