Watching the River Flow - Single Version

[00:09.68] What's the matter with me?
[00:12.01] I don't have much to say
[00:18.35] Daylight sneakin' through the window
[00:20.22] And I'm still in this all-night café
[00:26.61] Walkin' to and fro beneath the moon
[00:30.06] Out to where the trucks are rollin' slow
[00:34.66] To sit down on this bank of sand
[00:37.35] And watch the river flow
[00:41.80]
[00:48.71] Wish I was back in the city
[00:51.87] Instead of this old bank of sand
[00:57.52] With the sun beating down over the chimney tops
[00:59.89] And the one I love so close at hand
[01:05.83] If I had wings and I could fly
[01:10.62] I know where I would go
[01:14.57] But right now I'll just sit here so contentedly
[01:18.29] And watch the river flow
[01:23.40] People disagreeing on all just about everything, yep
[01:27.31] Makes you stop and all wonder why
[01:31.42] Why only yesterday I saw somebody on the street
[01:34.82] Who just couldn't help but cry
[01:39.10] Oh, this ol' river keeps on rollin', though
[01:44.39] No matter what gets in the way and which way the wind does blow
[01:48.16] And as long as it does, I'll just sit here
[01:51.66] And watch the river flow
[01:55.86]
[02:30.54] People disagreeing everywhere you look
[02:34.11] Makes you want to stop and read a book
[02:37.18] Why only yesterday I saw somebody on the street
[02:42.01] That was really shook
[02:45.92] Well, but this old river keeps on rolling low
[02:51.54] No matter what gets in the way and which way the wind does blow
[02:56.44] And as long as it does, I'll just sit here
[02:59.41] And watch the river flow
[03:03.45] Watch the river flow
[03:07.28] Watching the river flow
[03:11.03] Watching the river flow
[03:14.56] But I'll sit down on this bank of sand
[03:19.75] And watch the river flow
[03:23.82]
