Karaoké Down to the River Ben Caplan

I went down to the river flowin' out onto the sea

On my way to the ocean

Let the spirit swallow me

I got low down in the water

I let the current guide my bones

I got nine kinds of trouble

I'm just tryin' to find my way home

Over twenty-sum'n' years of livin' and a thousand wasted days

I have loved a lot of women

Many times I've gone wrong ways

And I came down to the water for a dip to cleanse my soul

They keep tellin' me that I'm just a babe

But baby why do I feel so old

This is the verge of a breakthrough

It's a fine line that cannot be bent

And I felt like a river run dry but I don't know where all of the rainwater went

And I believe we were all dead or dyin' but I see different in the blue light

There is no such thing as a dawn or a dusk

It's daylight until it is night

You gotta fight through the dimmin'

You gotta run into the west

You gotta rage against the dyin' of the light

Live for the moment that's left

You gotta fight against the dimmin'

You gotta run into the west

You gotta rage against the dyin' of the light

Live for the moment that's left

'Cos there is no such thing as a dyin' man

We're alive 'till the moment we're dead

And a drownin' man is just a livin' man who hasn't run out of his last bit of breath

Huh

I went down to the river flowin' out onto the sea

On my way to the ocean

Let the spirit swallow me

I got low down in the water

I let the current guide my bones

I got nine kinds of trouble

I'm just tryin' to find my way home

Find my way home

Find my way home

Find my way home
