Lord, this city livin' is bringin' me down Half a million people every time I turn around They're sayin' ÒBuy some of this, won't you give me some of that?Ó A man can't even find a peaceful place to sit. Chorus: Gonna go and live by a river until my soul is cleansed Gonna go and live by a river, let life move on in Gonna go and talk to those gentle people who live out by the trees Gonna go and live by a river until my soul is free. Out in Colorado the water runs so clean. Drop down on your knees, take a drink from a cool-running stream. While you're on your knees look up to the sky above. Out in Colorado you can feel God's love. Chorus: Gonna go and live by a river until my soul is cleansed Gonna go and live by a river, let life move on in Gonna go and talk to those gentle people who live out by the trees Gonna go and live by a river until my soul is free. |
