Rhyce Records - Gummigoo Blues Lyrics

Down by the river
Where the water runs so slow
You'll find someone who's seen it all
The highs, the lows
Scales like leather, eyes like the night
Moves like water, no fear in sight

Searching for more, a way to restore
Oh Gummigoo, what's a soul like you to do
When the world keeps changing
But don't change for you
Just keep swimming through these

Gummigoo blues, when feeling the heat
Stick to your heart, it's made of gold
Keep the world beneath your feet
Even the king of the swamp
Feels the crown's getting heavy
Drifting through life, but the past is steady
Now these Gummigoo blues
Are the things that stick to you

He was raised in the mud, never learned to cry
Just a cold blooded sinner
Beneath another broken southern sky

So tell me why
When the moonlight hits just right
You can see it in those eyes
A soul that never lost its shine

Gummigoo blues, when feeling the heat
Stick to your heart, it's made of gold
Keep the world beneath your feet
Even the king of the swamp
Feels the crown's getting heavy
Drifting through life, but the past is steady
Now these Gummigoo blues
Are the things that stick to you

Like glue, yeah
Oh, Gummigoo
What's a soul like you to do
When the world keeps changing
But don't change for you
Just keep swimming through
Then they'll never take that soul from you
Now you're running wild
But the river knows what's true
The river's calling you

Gummigoo blues, when feeling the heat
Stick to your heart, it's made of gold
Keep the world beneath your feet
Even the king of the swamp
Feels the crown's getting heavy
Drifting through life, but the past is steady
Now these Gummigoo blues
Are the things that stick to you

Looks like this is the end of the road
But I'll see you later, alligator
