"(Take Me To The) Riverbank" lyrics

Times have changed
But the change of time's slow going
My ramble tamble's still intact
Though I've got plenty of guts still showing

All along the levee
Where we just sat and sometimes drank one
The weeds are growing over
Our summer days are long gone

Take me to the riverbank
With no clouds in the sky
And if you do, I won't give my thanks
But I'll stay there 'til I die

I've grown and shedded some
I've shed the ones I used to care for
It seems they're all long dead and gone
But they're still up to the same chores

All along the endless streets
We live and die and beg for
There are new breeds of walking feet
That I just don't have the time for

Just take me to the riverbank
With no clouds in the sky
And if you do, I won't give my thanks
But I'll stay there 'til I die

Now it's time to save my time
Pack my things and say goodbye
Unsatisfied and anxious now
I want to blow away from here
But take me to the riverbank
So take me to the riverbank
Where waters run like some mistake
And I can make my history
