Queen of the Country

Queen of the country won't you take me home
Queen of the country where the river flows
Queen of the country like my father used to know
Queen of the country won't you take me home

It used to be life was simple but not an easy task
The river provided for all that we could ask
And though she's always given and we've taken too much
The river has a power only the surface can we touch

I've been waiting but for what I don't know
I've been day dreaming of all the places I could go
So when I feel the pain floods of emptiness inside
I jump into the river and she takes me for a ride

Down by the river I can rest awhile
Oh that river yeah it makes me smile
Gonna wade in the water and wash away my sin
Down by the river lord I begin again

So queen of the country won't you take me home
Queen of the country where the river flows
Queen of the country like my father used to know
Queen of the country won't you take me home
