《The River Bank》歌词

[00:00:02] The River Bank-Bert Jansch

[00:00:16] Sitting on the river bank

[00:00:18] Watching the water flow

[00:00:22] Sitting here thinking and wondering

[00:00:24] Which way to go

[00:00:30] How the river sings the sweetest songs

[00:00:33] In a million harmonies

[00:00:37] But the sun shines brighter on the other side

[00:00:41] That's where l want to be

[00:00:45] So please mister ferryman

[00:00:48] Won't you take me to the other side

[00:00:51] Where the songbirds sing for me

[00:00:55] Where life is led by the hand of fate

[00:00:58] That's how it ought to be

[00:01:21] When the evening shadows reach out

[00:01:24] At the setting of the sun

[00:01:28] Will l still be wishing and a-wondering

[00:01:31] When the morning comes

[00:01:36] For l once could swim against the tide

[00:01:39] Like the salmon who swims for home

[00:01:43] But I'll be happy now just to hitch a ride

[00:01:46] And make it on my own

[00:01:52] So please mister ferryman

[00:01:55] Won't you take me to the other side

[00:01:58] Where the songbirds sing for me

[00:02:01] Where life is led by the hand of fate

[00:02:06] That's how it ought to be

[00:02:21] Well I'll take you says the ferryman

[00:02:28] But if l should close my eyes

[00:02:31] And fall asleep before we land

[00:02:34] You must take these oars and forever more

[00:02:39] Be at my command
