(Take Me to the) Riverbank

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Times have changed But the change of time's slow going My ramble tamble's still intact Though I've got plenty of guts still showing [Verse 2] All along the levee Where we just sat and sometimes drank one The weeds are growing over Our summer days are long gone [Chorus] Take me to the riverbank With no clouds in the sky And if you do, I won't give my thanks But I'll stay there 'til I die [Verse 3] I've grown and shedded some I've shed the ones I used to care for It seems they're all long dead and gone But they're still up to the same chores [Verse 4] All along the endless streets We live and die and beg for There are new breeds of walking feet That I just don't have the time for [Chorus] Just take me to the riverbank With no clouds in the sky And if you do, I won't give my thanks But I'll stay there 'til I die [Outro] Now it's time to save my time Pack my things and say goodbye Unsatisfied and anxious now I want to blow away from here But take me to the riverbank So take me to the riverbank Where waters run like some mistake And I can make my history
