"Take Me To The River" lyrics

"Take Me To The River"

Take me to the river, set me on the sand
Underneath the tall pine tree with a cane pole in my hand
How I long to feel the comfort of a country breeze
Take me to the river and honey, set me free

Lately it seems to me the walls are closing in
And I don't care if I ever see this factory again
'Cause I'm just a country boy, I hope you'll understand
Take me to the river and honey, set me on the sand

Take me to the river, set me on the sand
Underneath the tall pine tree with a cane pole in my hand
How I long to feel the comfort of a country breeze
Take me to the river and honey, set me free

Take me to the river, set me on the sand
Underneath the tall pine tree with a cane pole in my hand
How I long to feel the comfort of a country breeze
Take me to the river and honey, set me free

Take me to the river, oh, set me on the sand
Underneath the tall pine tree with a cane pole in my hand
How I long to feel the comfort of a country breeze
Take me to the river and honey, set me free

Take me to the river, oh, set me on the sand
Underneath the tall pine tree with a cane pole in my hand
How I long to feel the comfort of a country breeze
Take me to the river and honey, set me free
Take me to the river and honey, set me free
