Only a River
Lyrics
Well I was born up in the mountains
Raised up in a desert town
And I never saw the ocean
Till I was close to your age now
Oh Shenandoah, I long to see you
Hey, hey, hey, you rolling river
Oh Shenandoah, I long to see you
Hey, hey, hey
Only a river gonna make things right
Only a river gonna make things right
Only a river gonna make things right
I'm going to back to San Angelo
The ground is hard and the county's dry
But I'm gonna get my fill somehow
Rivers of corn and wheat and rye
Oh Shenandoah, I long to see you
Hey, hey, hey, you rolling river
Oh Shenandoah, I long to see you
Hey, hey, hey
Only a river gonna make things right
Only a river gonna make things right
Only a river gonna make things right
Oh Shenandoah, I long to see you
Hey, hey, hey, you rolling river
Oh Shenandoah, I long to see you
Hey, hey, hey
Only a river gonna make things right
Only a river gonna make things right
Only a river gonna make things right
Oh Red, Red River Valley
Where she remember all the things we said
And what's the chance that she'll remember
All those nights in the river bed
Oh Shenandoah, I long to see you
Hey, hey, hey, you rolling river
Oh Shenandoah, I long to see you
Hey, hey, hey
Only a river gonna make things right
Only a river gonna make things right
Only a river gonna make things right
Only a river gonna make things right
Only a river gonna make things right
Only a river gonna make things right
Only a river gonna make things right
Only a river gonna make things right
Only a river gonna make things right
