Lyrics:

(Tom Johnston) Outside of town there is a river And it calls to me Like a song in the night A whole lotta people make way to that river Cause it keeps on rollin' on Like everything's alright That old river just keeps rollin' on Even when all love is just a song And like that river we just keep on rollin' along Everybody needs somethin' they can count on everyday Like a clock that keeps the time for ya It never drifts away You and me you see are different but the same And though we may not understand each other We got to try just the same Now all these thoughts don't mean nothin' If we don't live like we say And I for one need love and direction To help me find my way
