Sitting On The Bank Of The River

SITTING, JUST SITTING, ON THE BANK OF THE RIVER
WATCHING MY LIFE GO PASSING BY
THE MOON IS HIGH
AND THE WIND MAKES ME SHIVER
LORD I’M SO LONESOME, I COULD DIE

LORD I WANT TO GO BACK HOME
I WANT TO GO BACK HOME
WHERE I BELONG

LORD I WANT TO GO BACK HOME
I WANT TO GO BACK HOME
WHERE I BELONG

SITTING, JUST SITTING, ON THE OLD WEST SIDE HIGHWAY
KEEP SEEING THAT BIG SANDY RIVER BOAT
I TOLD THE FOLKS BACK HOME I HAD TO LIVE LIFE MY WAY
NOW I’VE GOT NO PLACE TO GO

LORD I WANT TO GO BACK HOME
I WANT TO GO BACK HOME
WHERE I BELONG

LORD I WANT TO GO BACK HOME
I WANT TO GO BACK HOME
WHERE I BELONG

WHO’D EVER THINK I’D END UP HERE?
STARS IN MY EYES TURNING TO TEARS

SITTING, JUST SITTING, ON THE BANK OF THE RIVER
I GOTTA WALK TO RIVERSIDE PARK
MOON IS OUT
AND THE WIND MAKES ME SHIVER

BACK HOME IT NEVER SEEMS TO GET THIS DARK
LORD I WANT TO GO BACK HOME
I WANT TO GO BACK HOME
WHERE I BELONG

LORD, SHOW ME THE WAY TO GO BACK HOME
I WANT TO GO BACK HOME
WHERE I BELONG

WHO’D EVER THINK I’D END UP HERE?
STARS IN MY EYES - TURNING TO TEARS
