The Banks of the River

I was, born and raised
At the top of the riverbank
Where nothing much remains
And I've seen broken hearts
I've seen broken homes and friends
And family's torn apart

The river will drag you down if you let it

I got out alive

I was born on the banks of the river
Ive gotta keep my head above the water

An industrial city the streets don't have much pity

I got out alive

We were alright we were alright
We were alright we were alright
We were alright we were alright
We were alright we were alright
This town will drag you down
Only if you let it

I got out alive

I spent, all my time yeah
Down by the river
Were the cranes were froze in time
But we had the time of our lives
We never let it grind us down
We got out alive

The river will drag you down if you let it
I got out alive
I was born on the banks of the river
I've gotta keep my head above the water
An industrial city the streets don't have much pity

I got out alive

We were alright we were alright
We were alright we were alright
We were alright we were alright
We were alright we were alright
This town will drag you down
Only if you let it

I got out alive

I was born on the banks of the river
I born on the banks of the river
I was born on the banks of the river
I was born on the banks of the river

We were alright we were alright
We were alright we were alright
We were alright we were alright
We were alright we were alright
