Back To The River

I’m going back to the river
From where I used to be
Where skies are blue
And the water’s clear and clean

I’m going back to the river
Where the devil can’t find me
Where no one knows my name
I’m just trying to get away

I’m going back to the river
‘Cause I just want to be free
You can be my queen
And I will be your king

I’m going back to the river
Where people listen to the words I say
Where the water flows and heaven knows
That this is home for me
