Follow The River
Down in the city there’s a whole world waiting
Lives that run on fumes
Whiskey and women and the talk of strangers
Filling up the room
The road is full of twists and turns
People who will steer you wrong
Not always easy to find your way
And feel like you belong
You can’t go wrong
When you follow the river
Follow the river home
You can’t go wrong
When you follow the river
You’re never going to be alone
I lost sight of what was right
Common decency
Helping your brother
When this big old world
Has brought him to his knees
This life is full of twists and turns
People who will lead you astray
So don’t ignore that outstretched hand
It might be you one day
You can’t go wrong…
Maybe you’re standing in a welfare line
I’ve been down there too
Waiting for someone to give you a handout
Tell you what to do
The road is full of twists and turns
People who will steer you wrong
Not always easy to find your way
And feel like you belong
You can’t go wrong…
