Lyrics to The River Just Knows :
|
4 a.m. comes awful early
|
And I was dead on my feet
|
But if you're gonna catch the biggest fish
|
You gotta lose a little sleep
|
I packed my gear and a couple beers
|
And I headed for my favorite spot
|
But I cursed my luck
|
When I saw his truck
|
Right where I pulled off
|
Was hopin' to have the river to myself that day
|
|
¡®Cause the river don't talk
|
The river don't care
|
Where you've been
|
What you've done
|
Or why it is you're standin' there
|
It just rolls on by
|
Whisperin' to your soul
|
It's gonna be alright
|
The river just knows
|
|
The way the sun bounced off the water
|
I could hardly make him out
|
But I could see he had a fish on
|
A big ol' rainbow trout
|
The fight went on forever
|
And as they headed down my way
|
I saw his military haircut
|
And the new scars on his face
|
Right then I knew
|
What brought him to this place
|
|
You know the river don't talk
|
The river don't care
|
Where you've been
|
What you've done
|
Or why it is you're standin' there
|
It just rolls on by
|
Whisperin' to your soul
|
It's gonna be alright
|
The river just knows
|
|
He held the fish down in the water
|
And he coaxed it back to life
|
He said ¡®I'll help you get your wind back
|
¡®Cause you helped me get mine'
|
And all I could think to say was ¡®Welcome home'
|
But I think that river said it best on its own
|
|
¡®Cause the river don't talk
|
You know the river don't care
|
Where you've been
|
What you've done
|
Or why it is you're standin' there
|
It just rolls on by
|
Whisperin' to your soul
|
It's gonna be alright
|
The river just knows
|
Just knows¡¦
