The River Songtext
von Jeremy Renner

My minds been playin′ tricks on me
Been carryin' me a heavy a load
If quicksands underneath my feet
I′ll dig 'til I find some gold

I've been awakened by my
Will to survive, and now I′m ready to fight this time
It′s do or die

When the water takes a hold
No, I won't let it break my soul
I′ll keep swimming 'til I make it home
(Oh, oh, oh)
Take me to the river

When life′s been tryin' to cut me deep
I′m just gonna let it bleed
Never been a prayin' man
Now I'm foldin′ up my hands
This who I am


I′ve been awakened by my
Will to survive, and now I'm ready to fight this time
It′s do or die

When the water takes a hold
No, I won't let it break my soul
I′ll keep swimming 'til I make it home
(Oh, oh, oh)
Take me to the river
I′ma let it all just wash away
Take me to the river
I ain't gonna leave here like I came

(Oh, oh, oh)
(Oh, oh, oh)
Take me to the river, mmm

I've been awakened by my
Will to survive, and now I′m ready to fight this time
It′s do or die


When the water takes a hold
No, I won't let it break my soul
I′ll keep swimming 'til I make it home
(Oh, oh, oh)
Take me to the river
I′ma let it all just wash away
Take me to the river
I ain't gonna leave here like I came

(Oh, oh, oh)
(Oh, oh, oh)
Take me to the river
