Down By The River

Do you ever feel lonely, Standing in the city lights
Have you ever seen the moonlight? So far away
Can't see the sunshine, Living in a concrete jungle
I'm gonna break this chain, Into the wild

Down by the river, to see the midnight special
I was down by the river, they took me to the shadow

Damn the heat from motors, Burning my skin and bones
Dying to find the cold rain, To clear my mind
Dreamt of a gypsy woman, She showed me the mojo working
The thrill is never gone, If you catch me up

Down by the river, to see the midnight special
I was down by the river, they took me to the shadow

Summertime I was on the loose, Running barefoot and feeling free
Jumping on the hillside, a drink in my hand, in the water like coming home

Down by the river, to see the midnight special
I was down by the river, they took me to the shadow
Down by the river... Down by the river...
Down by the river... Down by the river...
