1
The rains have come early, they say
2
We're all gonna wash away
3
Well, that's all right with me
4
If heaven's torrent can wash clean
5
The arrogance that lies unseen
6
In the damage done since we have gone
7
Where we ought not to be
8
Goodbye to a river
9
Goodbye to a river
10
So long
11
Lakes and levees, dams and locks
12
They put that river in a box
13
Well, it was running wild
14
And men must have control
15
We live our lives in starts and fits
16
We lose our wonder bit by bit
17
We condescend and in the end
18
We lose our very souls
19
Goodbye to a river
20
Goodbye to a river
21
So long
22
The dirty water washes down
23
Poisoning the common ground
24
Taking sins of farm and town
25
And bearing them away
26
The captains of industry
27
And their tools on the hill
28
They're killing everything divine
29
What will I tell this child of mine
30
I make a church out of words
31
As the years dull my senses
32
And I try to hold on to the world that I knew
33
I struggle to cross generational fences
34
And the beauty that still remains ¡ º
35
I can touch it through you
36
Goodbye to a river
37
Goodbye to a river
38
So long
39
Goodbye to a river
40
Goodbye to a river
41
So long
42
Goodbye to a river
43
Goodbye to a river
44
So long
45
Goodbye to a river
46
Goodbye to a river
47
Roll on
