Back to the River

wake in a cold sweat
nightmare by my bed
waiting for the rider
wondering through my head

cause Im a long way from home
on the highway too long
got road dust in my mouth
I need to head down south

and get back to the river
back to the river
oh back to the river
back to the river to take my time

so I can think about the little ones
keep them in my heart
born in a bad storm
an't no good when we're apart

well im miss their hugs
and chasing lighting bugs
they make me smile, but its gonna take a little while

to get back to the river,
back to the river
oh back to the river
oh back to the river to take my time

theres a full moon rising out tonight
might make be crazy but that all right
long as i find som peace of mine

Im going back to the river to take my time

where there's a campfire going
warm breezes blowing
mose hanging from the trees
I'll have all that i need

when i get back to the river
oh back to the river
back to the river
oh back to the river

oh back now
oh lord i got'a got'a get back
lord lord back now
back to the river
oh back to the river right now
oh oh
