Josh Ritter - One More River To Cross Lyrics

Josh Ritter Lyrics

"One More River To Cross"

The Chacos, the Brazos, the wide Rio Grande
One more river to cross
The Rogue running green through a cottonwood stand
One more river to cross

I've tried to be good for most of my life
And never do wrong when I knew what was right
So when I cross over my heart will be light
One more river to cross

I was twelve when I first crossed the Cumberland Gap
One more river to cross
And except for in memory, I've never looked back
One more river to cross

The Snake and the Salmon
The Priest, the Payette
The Lolo, the Bravo, the San Bernadette
I'm tired but I still got one left in me yet
One more river to cross

My one true companion is carrying me
One more river to cross
And when I cross over, he'll go roaming free
One more river to cross

Out where the paints and the ponies run wild
Through endless green valleys, til one day he finds
A river and crossing it back to my side
One more river to cross

A river and crossing it back to my side
One more river to cross

One more river to cross
