Where the river flows,
Where the river flows.
I was walkin' the main road,
Comin' into town,
I came upon a stranger,
Lying on the ground.
He said "I been in prison,
And now I'm on the run,
I'm feelin' kinda weary,
Gotta make it home."
Chorus:
Where the river flows,
Where the water goes,
I'll be over there,
Waitin' over there,
Where the river flows.
Well I didn't have a lot to give,
But I gave him what I could,
Listened while he talked about
The bad times and the good.
And early in the mornin',
I took an old man home,
Left him by the river,
Left him all alone.
[Chorus x3]
