River Man


. . . Gonna see the river man
Gonna tell him all I can
about the plan
for lilac time

If he tells me all he knows
about the way his river flows
And all night shows
in summertime . . .

Gonna to see the river man
Gonna to tell him all I can
about the ban
on feeling free

If he tells me all he knows
about the way his river flows
I don’t suppose
it’s meant for me

Oh, how they come and go
