Back To The River lyrics

There's blue skies all around me

And the world looks just the same

It's hard to be criminal

when you all know my name

Sometimes I wander

Sometimes I wanna be free

Well, you can be king of me

And I'll be the queen

No one listens to me

The words I have to say

There ain't no doubt about it

I'm just trying to get away

I'm going back to the river

Where no one will find me

We're going back to the river

Back to the sea

When I was just a baby

My mama taught me

"Girl, you best believe in Jesus

If you'll make it in the world"

I'm going back to the river

Where no one knows my name

I'm going back to the river

Back to the Seine

Here we go

There's blue skies all around me

And the world looks just the same

It's hard to be criminal

When they all know your name

Sometimes I wonder

Sometimes I wanna be free

Well, you can be king of me

And I'll be the queen

No one listens to me

The words I have to say

There ain't no doubt about it

I'm just fading into gray

I'm going back to the river

Where the devil can't find me

I'm going back to the river

Back to the sea
