Barney Cortez & Rayland Baxter - Shit River Lyrics

Barney Cortez & Rayland Baxter Lyrics

"Shit River"

City life sure as hell brings you down
I got no car, got no drive to get out
Dirty rags, plastic bags at my feet
Fast food trash blowing like tumbleweed

When the sun goes down
I can see, I can see, I can see
All the lights in the sky
I gotta leave this place behind

I don't know why I get the shivers
When I look across the shit river, river, river
Watch it rolling by

In the summertime I got no shade in the trees
Goin' outta their minds, crackheads workin' the street
It's all we know rollin' around like a pig
I say I'm free cuz I'm livin' off of the grid

When the sun goes down
I can see, I can see, I can see
All the lights in the sky
I gotta leave this place behind

I don't know why I get the shivers
When I look across the shit river, river, river
Watch it rolling by
