1
It's knowin' that your door is always open
2
And your path is free to walk
3
That makes me tend to leave my sleepin' bag rolled up
4
And stashed behind your couch
5
And it's knowin' I'm not shackled by forgotten words and bonds
6
And the ink stains that have dried upon some lines
7
That keeps you in the back roads
8
By the rivers of my memory and keeps you ever gentle on my mind
9
It's not clingin' to the rocks and ivy
10
Planted on their columns now that bind me
11
Or somethin' that somebody said because
12
They thought we fit together walkin'
13
It's just knowin' that the world will not be cursin' or forgivin'
14
When I walk along some railroad track and find
15
That you're movin' on the back roads
16
By the rivers of my memory and for hours you're just gentle on my mind
17
Though the wheat fields and the coal mines and the junkyards
18
And the highways come between us
19
And some other woman's cryin' to her mother
20
'Cause she turned and I was gone
21
I still might run in silence tears of joy might stain my face
22
And the summer sun might burn me till I'm blind
23
But not to where I cannot see
24
You walkin' on the back roads by the rivers flowin' gentle on my mind
25
I dip my cup of soup
26
Back from some gurglin', cracklin' cauldron in some train yard
27
My beard a roughenin' coal pile
28
And a dirty hat pulled low across my face
29
Through cupped hands 'round a tin can
30
I pretend to hold you to my breast and find
31
That you're wavin' from the back roads
32
By the rivers of my memory ever smilin', ever gentle on my mind
