lirik lagu paul pena - river

[verse 1]
they told me you were coming
and that i should stick around
they said that i had to meet you
you were a treasure that they’d found
and they were proud to hang with you
because they thought you played their game
even though you had your money
and your daddy had his fame

[chorus]
i know the river
(is a long, long road)
yes, the river
(it’s a heavy load)
oh lord, the river
(is a long, long road)
and i see you comin’ down
fixin’ to go
just before you leave me, baby
there’s something you got to know, yeah

[verse 2]
until finally i met you
and i realized then
that with all the broken~down, broken~hearted, low~down people you knew and loved
i knew we could be friends
for your heart was into lovin’
spreadin’ good times and joy all around
and because of that, many people that you knew
they couldn’t understand you
and put you down
kicked you around
[chorus]
’cause the river
(is a long, long road)
yes, the river
(is a heavy load)
oh, the river
(is a long, long road)
i see you coming down
fixin’ to go
just before you leave me, baby
here’s what i want you to know, yeah

[ad lib]
i’m just sitting here tonight thinking
i’m thinking of all the lovely people that i’m gonna miss
when i leave the land where i was born
and you’re one of the most
the most prominent ones, my dear, because
i know that you’ve been kicked around because, like
though you have money and all the people behind you had money
you were into good times and were into
sending your heart out to all the people
and really digging on them and just really digging on them
just, just being happy
and this is what i’ve got to say to you tonight
[verse 3]
so finally i’m leavin’
for at last, i understand
that many of the people that i knew and thought were my closest friends
lord, their heads are in another land
me and my lady got to go out there
spread a little good loving around
but i just want to let you know before i leave
that if you’re ever homeless
a home with us can always be found

[outro]
the river
(is a long, long road)
yes, the river
(is a heavy load)
oh, the river
(is a long, long road)
so just before i leave, baby
take my hand
me and my lady will show you how we can make a better land
and stop life’s river from being such
(a long, long road)
stop love’s river from being such
(a heavy load)
lord, ’cause the river
(is a long, long road)
come on, my love
and please give me your smile
i just wanna love you baby
so you can feel good with me for a while
’cause the river
(is a long, long road)
oh, the river
