CARRY ME RIVER

carry me (a river) carry me (a river) carry me a river take i there,
 by the river let the cool breeze wash away the pain from within me not in vain
 carry me a river where the sweet melodies of the birds reign
 the birds in a singing mood so plain wipe off my mind from the railing train and
carry me over yonder to clear my brain as you carry me a river
 carry me a river by the river side
 the pebbles and the bubbles clear as water by the stream
 as you carry me
 a river told me the best poor surrogate of wisdom is pride
 but intelligence and self trust will avoid troubles not even in your dream
 carry me a river in touch with i roots in my gideon boots and some khaki suites
 carry me a river to dream a better me
 and look back to see the horizon by sundown lost
but not a clown with my thinking crown i stood up to go back-a town
 next time carry me a river on time though you carry me there for some time
but next time carry me a river on time
