Clay LaBeff - Far Side Of The River Lyrics

Well on the far side of the river
There's a worn down beaten path
From men like me who just can't seem to get away from the past
And on the far side of the river
Where the grass is always green
The sun always shines and love's just fine
It's all you could ever dream
And on the far side of the river
Where we'd all get alone
The stars all align if you give them time
We sing all the same songs
So river run me free
And won't you take me to that place
Way up high on past the sky
So I can see my mama's face
Lord tell her I'm coming
Won't you tell her I'm on my way
Tell her I'm trying to be a better guy
So I can see her again someday
And on the far side of the river
Where the water runs deep and wide
There's a place that I call home
Where I could let my spirit fly
And on the far side of the river
I'll walk along the banks
Let the water cleanse my soul
And tell all the angels thanks
So river run me free
And won't you take me to that place
Way up high on past the sky
So I can see my mama's face
Lord tell her I'm coming
And won't you tell her I'm on my way
Tell her I'm trying to be a better guy
So I can see her again someday
So if you're feeling lost
And you need a place to go
Join me on the far side
Where the river runs sweet and slow
So river run me free
And won't you take me to that place
Way up high on past the sky
So I can see my mama's face
Lord tell her I'm coming
And won't you tell her I'm on my way
Tell her I'm trying to be a better guy
So I can see her again someday
