Back to the river again, again
Back to the river again
Well, if there's a river of life, of life
It is a river of light, of light
Down by the river with my friends, my friends
Down by the river with my friends
Down by the river, joined a band, joined a band
Down by the river, joined the angel band
There's a mermaid down the shore
She heard music, she says, "Hello"
And there's my wife at the river's edge
Oh, we came to be happy again
Back to the river again, again
Back to the river again
Well, if there's a river of life, of life
It is a river of light, of light
Down in the water with my son, with my baby
Down in the water with my son
Well, I got water up my nose, up my nose
I got holy water right up my nose
There's a captain on the the shore
He heard music, he said, "Hello"
I lived my life at the river's edge
Now I want to be happy again
Cut it
Back to the river again, again
Back to the river again
It is a river of light, of light
It is a river of light, of light
There's a people on the shore
They heard music, they said, "Hello"
Here's our life at the river's edge
Oh, we want to be happy again
