I was born into that place
Where everything moves a little slow
From the fields up to the moonlight
The way it makes that river glow
Got a little bit older
Start to hear that sound
Used to hear the people talk about it
Never knew what they meant
But I know now
But I know now
So I jumped into the river waist dip
Where the folklore got it's FAME
And then it moved up the riverbed
Straight to your radio waves
From Percy Sledge to the Rolling Stones
On two inch tape with that Swamper tone
Listen to the river
That River That Sings
The River That Sings
That River That Sings
Take me to the river
To the River That Sings
I was born into that place
Where everything moves a little slow
From the fields up to the moonlight
The way it makes that river glow
Now we got a bit older
And we're the ones makin' that sound
And the people gather 'round us
Shower us with love
And pass it around
Take me to the river
It's River That Sings
The River That Sings
That River That Sings
Take me to the river
To the River That Sings
I was born into that place
Where everything moves a little slow
From the fields up to the moonlight
The way it makes that river glow
