Cool breeze on the river ripples to the shore Wash away my troubles to the sea forever more Wind and willows whisper sadness in the sound Tell a tale of my once happy world that's fallen down Old man I might be goin' where you're bound
Old man river I've come to talk again Yes I know you're tired cause your journey never ends She's just like you she's movin' all the time And I think she's movin' me out of her mind
I wanna travel with you in your deep and emerald soul That's the only way to make it peaceful like before We used to touch at midnight oh but now I feel she's gone Even though she's lying next to me I feel alone Old man it looks like time to travel on
Old man river I've come to talk again... Old man river I've come to talk again... Oh I think she's movin' me out of her mind Oh I think she's movin' me out of her mind
