"Northern Rivers" lyrics

"Northern Rivers"

Well, her eyes a few sips still open wide
That smile, my, oh, my, what a sight
And her hair, that long, blonde, curly, pretty hair
Underneath the felt hat that runs down her back
Oh, up and back

'Cause she's the little girl who sits up on the hill in the night
Talkin' to the stars, askin' if she's doin' it right
'Cause she's all on her own and she's got herself for life
'Cause her mama left her and her papa's not around
And she's just tryin' to find her own ground
Tryin' to find her own ground

When it gets cold
She snuggles up in the Northern Rivers tryin' to keep warm
Tryin' to keep out the shivers
Yeah, oh, when it gets cold
And she says she showers with Jack Johnson on
And Taylor was her favorite song
'Cause it made her feel like she belonged
Oh, she belonged

'Cause she's the little girl who sits up on the hill in the night
Talkin' to the stars, askin' if she's doin' it right
'Cause she's all on her own and she's got herself for life
'Cause her mama left her and her papa's not around
And she's just tryin' to find her own ground
Just tryin' to find her own ground

When it gets cold
She snuggles up in the Northern Rivers tryin' to keep warm
Tryin' to keep out the shivers
And she says she showers with Jack Johnson on
And Taylor was her favorite song
'Cause it made her feel like she belonged
Oh, she belonged
