Rivers Invitation

Now I've been all around the country

And I've played in every town

Because I'm trying to find my baby

But no one has seen her around

Seen her around

Now I can't find my baby

Lord, my baby can't be found

No, she can't be found

I spoke to the river

And the river spoke back to me

And he said, "You look lonely

You look full of misery, full of misery

If you can't find your baby

Kindly make your home with me

Make your home with me"

But I don't wanna leave her

'Cause I know she's still alive

And someday I'm gonna find her

And I'll take her for a ride

I'll take her for a ride

And we'll live our life forever

In a home among the tide

In a home among the tide

Now I spoke to that old river

And the river spoke back to me

And he said, "You look lonely

You look full of misery, full of misery

If you can't find your baby

Kindly make your home with me

Make your home with me"
