Artist/Band: Smith Sisters
Lyrics for Song: River Roll On
Lyrics for Album: Roadrunner [1992]



River roll on


Wish I could be like you


No looking back


And no heart that breaks in two





You'll never now


What a goodbye can do


Oh, I wish I were you


River roll on


River roll on





Free as the winds that blow


Feelin' no pain


We just roll 'em with the flow


No tears to cry





No songs to make you blue


Oh, I wish I were you


River roll on





Oh, I never thought that


I could ever feel so all alone


But I'm learnin'





The world keeps on a turnin'


Even though he's gone


River roll on





Keep rollin' endlessly


Down to the arms


Of the ever waiting sea





I wish that I had someone waitin' too


Oh, I wish I were you


River roll on


I wish that I had someone waitin' too


Oh, I wish I were you


River roll on


Oh, I wish I were you


River roll on


River roll on


River roll on


River roll on
