Wild, Wild River
© 2009 by Michael Hurwicz
I go running down the rocks,
I don’t wear shoes, I don’t wear socks.
I start up on the mountain top,
Until I reach the ocean I don’t stop.
Oh, I run deep and I run strong,
I hit the rocks, sing a beautiful song.
No one ever dammed me up,
And never will, and so I’ll never die.
And they call me a Wild, Wild River.
Call me a Wild, Wild River.
A hundred bright things live in me,
And leap in me, so deep in me.
All year long we play outside,
And always will, and so we’ll never die.
A thousand, thousand years I’ve played.
A happy fool, I’m not afraid
To run and leap into the sea.
I love the sun and I’m not afraid to fly - FLY!!
And they call me a Wild, Wild River.
Call me a Wild, Wild River.
[Instrumental break]
Some folks say that I don’t pay.
I just say “Then stay away,
And I will stay a Wild, Wild River,
I will stay a Wild, Wild River.”
Some folks say that I don’t pay.
I just say "Then come and play,
And I will stay a Wild, Wild River,
I will stay a Wild, Wild River.”
