the river

the (big old) river is wide
and (it’s) muddy today
seems a big old flood came through
and washed lots of things away

the lake was about to flow over
the dam
how sad I am
I am
I am

the river is wide
and it’s muddy today
gonna be a long time
before everything’s okay
(okay
okay)

the lake was about to flow over
the dam
how sad I am
I am
I am

Gonna take a lot of cleaning
Up of stuff
Gonna take a lot of elbow grease
And sometimes that’s not enough

Gonna take a lot of hands
To reclaim this flooded land

the lake was about to flow over
the dam
how sad I am
I am
I am

the river is wide
and it’s muddy today
seems a big old flood came through
and washed lots of things away

I am sad,
so sad,
I am
I am
