Rivertown

Midnight, I’m driving in the pouring rain
The thought washed over me
Will I ever be here again on this day or any other day?
Sheets of rain like honey, made it hard to see
Turns of the road ahead fast approaching me
Approaching me, fast approaching me
Ooh, gotta get out of this Rivertown
I’ll get a ferry and ride to a higher ground
Far from Rivertown
This town it leaves me empty
Alone I walk the streets all are lined with potholes
Left bruises on my feet, on my feet, bruises on my feet
Weathered sheets of awning at the green grocer store
Been falling down on the side walk
For fifteen years or more, fifteen years or more
Ooh, gotta get out of this Rivertown
I’ll get a ferry and ride to a higher ground
Far from Rivertown
This windy road I travel in the highest gear
These wheels are gonna take me far away from here
Away from here, far away from here
So take me at this moment in the driver’s seat
There ain’t no one in Rivertown
Gonna be missing me, gonna be missing me
Ooh, gotta get out of this Rivertown
I’ll get a ferry and ride to a higher ground
Ooh, gotta get out of this Rivertown
I’ll get a ferry and ride to a higher ground
