The River Songtext
von The Show Ponies

I′m gonna wash myself out down by the river,
Gonna wash myself where the river flows,
Gonna tell my friends to all join in,
Gonna tell them all to come.

Gonna hold the hand of my aunt's daughter,
Gonna hold her close, gonna hold her tight,
Gonna talk about our memories,
Gonna talk about her life.


What shall keep me from
Basking in the sun?
Patience, restore my way.
Life begins today.

Gonna rest my weary laden body,
Gonna rest myself in fields of green,
Gonna lay me down beneath the big blue sky,
Gonna lay down by the streams.

What shall keep me from
Basking in the sun?
Patience, restore my way.
Life begins today.


Gonna leave my cares and fears behind,
Gonna leave my worries and regret,
Gonna find me peace and freedom,
Gonna find I′m from debt.
