Roll River Roll

Roll river, keep on rolling Ancient lady cold I'm forsaken, lost and forgotten Roll river roll Roll river, roll river roll Let it take me, free and unchain me Ancient lady cold Keep on rolling, roll on forever Hope we shall meet at home Roll river, roll river roll You hold my body, lost and forsaken In your deep waters cold Oh, sacred river take me to my sweetheart My lonely bones Will she remember? Oh, river take me on my journey home Deep dark waters to learn your secrets River angel rise Roll river, roll river roll Roll river, roll over my bones --- Roll River Roll - Richard Hawley
