"Let's Go Down To The River" Lyrics

Once I was wonder wide eyed
Sign me up I was the first in line
What's that I got caught up under
Well don't you know that all of us are bound to stumble

I've been sleep walking
You wake me with the sound of your beckoning

Let's go down to the river
And sing a freedom song now darlin'
From that city of silver
To the blue of the ocean

These days time goes by so slowly
I pass it hangin' around here with my one and only
These days I try so hard I hardly try love
Doing battle with the shadows of ghosts

I've been sleepwalking
You wake me with the promise of a revolution

Let's go down to the river
And sing a freedom song now darlin'
From that city of silver
To the blue of the ocean

Never mind the ties that bind us
We've waited all this time
Why don't we let it go
Oh the weight of it all

Let's go down to the river
And sing a freedom song now darlin'
From that city of silver
To the blue of the ocean

Let's go down to the river
And sing a freedom song now darlin'
Turn those grey skies to silver
And float out to the ocean
