What's the matter with me?
I don't have too much to say
There's daylight sneaking through the window
And I'm still in this all-night cafรฉ
Walking to and fro beneath the moon
Out to where the trucks are rolling slow
Sit down on this bank of sand
And watch the river flow
Wish I was back in the city
Instead of on this old bank of sand
With the sun beating down over the chimney tops
And the one I love so close at hand
If I had wings and I could fly
I know where I would go
Right now I'll just sit here contentedly
And watch the river flow
People disagree on almost everything
Makes you stop and wonder why
Why only yesterday I saw someone on the street
Who couldn't just help but cry
Ah, this old river keeps on rolling though
No matter what gets in the way or which way the wind blows
As long as it does I'll just sit here
And watch the river flow
People disagree everywhere you look
Makes you stop and want to read a book
Why only yesterday I saw somebody on the street
That was really shook
Ah, but this old river keeps rolling though
No matter what gets in the way or which way the wind does blow
As long as it does I'll just sit here
And watch the river flow
Watch the river flow
Yeah, just sit here
And watch the river flow
Keep on watching that river
Watch that river flow, yeah
