1
I was born in the path of the winter wind
2
I was raised where the mountains are old
3
Their springtime waters came dancing down
4
And I remember the tales they told
5
The whistling ways of my younger days
6
Too quickly have faded on by
7
But all of their memories linger on
8
Like the light in a fading sky
9
River, take me along in your sunshine, sing me a song
10
Ever moving and winding and free
11
You rolling old river, you changing old river
12
Let's you and me, river, run down to the sea
13
I've been to the city and back again
14
I've been moved by some things that I've learned
15
Met a lot of good people and I've called them friends
16
Felt the change when the seasons turned
17
I've heard all the songs that the children sing
18
And listened to love's melodies
19
I've felt my own music within me rise
20
Like the wind in the autumn trees
21
River, take me along in your sunshine, sing me a song
22
Ever moving and winding and free
23
You rolling old river, you changing old river
24
Let's you and me, river, run down to the sea
25
Someday when the flowers are blooming still
26
Someday when the grass is still green
27
My rolling waters will round the bend
28
And flow into the open sea
29
So, here's to the rainbow that's followed me here
30
And here's to the friends that I know
31
And here's to the song that's within me now
32
I will sing it wherever I go
33
River, take me along in your sunshine, sing me a song
34
Ever moving and winding and free
35
You rolling old river, you changing old river
36
Let's you and me, river, run down to the sea
