[00:00:00] River Take Me - Darrell Scott

[00:00:06] Producer：Darrell Scott

[00:00:12] It's been rainy and windy for seven days straight

[00:00:19] I've been going to bed early and getting up late

[00:00:25] I look out my window and it's one shade of gray

[00:00:31] My wife and my kids don't have much to say

[00:00:35] A man out of work only gets in the way

[00:00:41] Oh the river is rising now one inch an hour

[00:00:47] And tonight we'll be lucky if we still have power

[00:00:53] But I've got a flashlight an oil lamp

[00:00:55] And I'm ready to go

[00:00:59] And a fresh set of batteries for my son's radio

[00:01:03] If the dam really breaks least

[00:01:05] We'll know where to go

[00:01:10] River take me river take me

[00:01:13] River take me far from troubled times

[00:01:17] River take me river take me

[00:01:20] River take me far from troubled times

[00:01:37] If I had a boat you know what I'd do

[00:01:42] I'd float me and my family down to Baton Rouge

[00:01:49] I wouldn't work in no factory I'd live off the land

[00:01:56] And live within means of my own two hands

[00:01:59] Dance Saturday nights to a Zydeco band

[00:02:54] Oh the river flows and a young man dreams

[00:03:00] And the river can drown you or it can wash you clean

[00:03:07] It can take you away to some other place

[00:03:13] It can power your cities carry your waste

[00:03:16] And give all that you drink a peculiar taste

[00:03:23] Oh don't look to me I've done my time

[00:03:28] You see I've had too many dreams

[00:03:31] For this one heart of mine

[00:03:35] And I've stood on the bridge with the river below

[00:03:41] Feeling all of the sadness that a proud man could hold

[00:03:45] Oh the river is full but there's no way

[00:03:48] No way no way

[00:03:50] To go

[00:03:52] River take me river take me

[00:03:55] River take me far from troubled times

[00:03:59] River take me river take me

[00:04:02] River take me far from troubled times

[00:04:06] River take me river take me

[00:04:09] River take me far from troubled times

[00:04:15] Ohhhh ohhh
