Intro
Verse 1
Well I'm
standing all
alone by the
river of my
home
Thinking about the
days I've left
behind
All the years I
roamed not a
nickel can I
show
And the
river helps to
ease my worried
mind

Well the
river run all
night, lord, the
river runs all
day
I can't run no mor
e cause I'm here t
o stay
I had an eye for
trouble and I've
lived a life of
pain
I sit
back and let that
water heal my
brain
Chorus
I'm letting go of all my
troubles
I think I'll be right here to
stay
Well the
water keeps a
churning while my
poor heart is
burning
Muddy water
take my pain
away
