I've been all across the country, and I've stayed in every town
You see, I'm trying to find my baby, and he ain't nowhere around, can you understand?
You know which way I'm heading, if my baby can't be found, oh, yeah
Well, I spoke to the river, and the river, the river spoke back to me
It said, "Oh! You look so lonely, and so much full of misery, yes, you do now
If you can't find your baby, come on, girl, and make your home with me" Oh, yeah
ย
I don't wanna leave him, no, I know, I know he's still alive
And someday, I'm gonna find him, and he's gonna take me for a ride, yes, he will now
And then we'll live forever and ever and ever, forever and ever among the tides, oh, yes, we will
Just in case I don't find him, I'm gonna take that river's invitation, river's invitation
Oh, oh, the river! Oh, oh, the river!
Oh, the river, yeah, oh, river's invitation
Yeah, the river
