 (IMG) Song Of The River
       
       I was born in the path of the winter wind
       I was raised where the mountains are old
       Their springtime waters came dancing down
       And I remember the tales they told
       
       The whistling ways of my younger days
       Too quickly have faded on by
       But all of their memories linger on
       Like the light in a fading sky
       
       River, take me along in your sunshine, sing me a song
       Ever moving and winding and free
       You rolling old river, you changing old river
       Let's you and me, river, run down to the sea
       
       I've been to the city and back again
       I've been moved by some things that I've learned
       Met a lot of good people and I've called them friends
       Felt the change when the seasons turned
       
       I've heard all the songs that the children sing
       And listened to love's melodies
       I've felt my own music within me rise
       Like the wind in the autumn trees
       
       River, take me along in your sunshine, sing me a song
       Ever moving and winding and free
       You rolling old river, you changing old river
       Let's you and me, river, run down to the sea
       
       Someday when the flowers are blooming still
       Someday when the grass is still green
       My rolling waters will round the bend
       And flow into the open sea
       
       So, here's to the rainbow that's followed me here
       And here's to the friends that I know
       And here's to the song that's within me now
       I will sing it wherever I go
       
       River, take me along in your sunshine, sing me a song
       Ever moving and winding and free
       You rolling old river, you changing old river
       Let's you and me, river, run down to the sea
