For the River lyrics

Stuck in a cage

Luck of the draw

Hours to wait

Gotta get out

Lord, I gotta fight one

Get me a key

Pick me a lock

Gotta be free, ready or not

Gotta run, gotta run

Gotta run, gotta run

Gotta run, gotta run

Nowhere to hide 'cause someone's gotta find you

Trying to breathe when everybody right behind you

Scattering leaves to try and cover up the footprints

Water ahead 'cause I can hear it in the distance

I'm running for the river

'Cause the river's been high and there ain't no goin' back

They'll never catch me

I'm running for the river

You can ride, you can fly, you can tell 'em that you drive

But there ain't no going back

They'll never catch me

Tell 'em that you tried, but you're never gonna catch me

Let out the hounds

Stand up the guards

Stand up and bow

Better be the boss like the Kennedy's

A fast one

Out of the trees

Into the swamp

Gotta be freaks

They'll never stop

Gotta run, gotta run

Gotta run, gotta run

God damnit, it's a fast one

Nowhere to hide 'cause someone's gotta find you

Trying to breathe when everybody right behind you

Scattering leaves to try and cover up the footprints

Water ahead 'cause I can hear it in the distance

I'm running for the river

'Cause the river's been high and there ain't no goin' back

They'll never catch me

I'm running for the river

You can ride, you can fly, you can tell 'em that you drive

But there ain't no going back

They'll never catch me

Tell 'em that you tried, but you're never gonna catch me

Water ahead 'cause I can hear it in the distance

Water ahead 'cause I can hear it in the distance (gotta run, gotta run)

Water ahead 'cause I can hear it in the distance

Water ahead 'cause I can hear it in the distance (gotta run, gotta run)

I'm running for the river

'Cause the river's been high and there ain't no goin' back

They'll never catch me

I'm running for the river

You can ride, you can fly, you can tell 'em that you drive

But there ain't no going back

They'll never catch me

They'll never catch me

Never gonna catch me

Never gonna catch me

They'll never catch me
