Rate The River Lyrics
Artist : Badlands Song : The River
Just a young man in an old steel town I'm
getting older now, it's time to look around
My brother John loves his needle & spoon
A cigarette hangs from his lip Everyone
‘round thinks he's so bad He's really
not that cool, no
And I know the reasons
why Deep inside he's not alive He was born
by a river You know he'll die by the river now
‘Cause deep inside my river's run dry
So many times did mother swallow her
pride Just to keep my old man's dreams alive
And I know, and I know someday we're gonna
move on outta here She says "Jesus,
Lord, don't give me no bad thoughts and bury me
here."
And I know the reasons why,
and I know the reasons why She was born by a
river Her blood flows through the river now
And deep inside my river's run dry She was
born by a river Her blood flows through the
river now ‘Cause deep inside my river's
run dry
Oh, take hold my hand and pray
Someday baby we're gonna find a way Oh,
oh
I know the reasons why ‘Cause
deep inside she lost her life Yeah, yeah,
yeah
She was born by a river Her blood
flows through the river now Deep inside the
river's run dry She was born by a river
You know, we'll die by the river now
‘Cause deep inside my river's run dry
Yeah, yeah, yeah, Ooh, yeah
We're
born by the river now You know, she'll die by
the river now Yeah, yeah, huummm
