Riverdog - Joe South

Somewhere there is a river

Where the water is swift

It’s deep and it’s wide

It flows through the valley

And across the other side of your mind

You gotta row your boat

You gotta keep it afloat

Leave your troubles behind

Keep movin', river dog

Just follow the river

Mm-mm, you’ll be given what you need, baby

Just as long as you’re a giver

God be with you when you roam

'Cause this whole world’s just ain’t your home

And there’s nothin' in the world you lack

There’s no reason in the world to look back

'Cause the past is gone

Keep on keepin' on, river dog

Ah, river dog, just follow the river

And when you finally arrive at the deep blue sea

You don’t have to ask

'Cause you know you’re as free as the wind

Let the world keep spinnin'

There never was a beginnin'

There’ll never be an end, yeah

River dog, just follow the river

Ah, you’ll be given what you need, baby

Just as long as you’re a giver

God be with you when you roam

'Cause this whole world just ain’t your home

And there’s nothin' in the world you lack

There’s no reason in the world to look back

'Cause the past is gone

Keep on keepin' on, river dog

Just follow the river

Oh, whoa, oh, oh

God be with you when you roam

'Cause this whole world just ain’t your home

And there’s nothin' in the world you lack

No reason in the world to look back

'Cause the past is gone

Keep on keepin' on, river dog
