Wild Is the River

I don't need a hurricane blowin', to tell me there's a storm around I don't need no chain around my neck, to tell me that I'm all tied down All I needed was a little satisfaction, tryin' to put me back on the track What I get is a typical reaction, for me there'll be no turnin' back Wild is the river, Wild and runnin' free Wild is the river, the river of no return Wild is the river, Wild and runnin' free Wild is the river, the river of no return I don't need a telegram to tell me, I got the message long ago I have seen the writing on the wall, telling me it's time to go I don't need it spelled out to the letter To tell me that I'm on the wrong track All I know is that a chance is for the better There'll never be no turnin' back Wild is the river, Wild and runnin' free Wild is the river, the river of no return Wild is the river, Wild and runnin' free Wild is the river, the river of no return I don't need a preacher here to show me Or tell me where I'm going wrong I don't need no money in my jeans "Cause I know that I'll get along All I know, a change is surely comin' Gonna turn your world around Watching as the river is a -flowin' Listen and you'll hear the sound Wild is the river, Wild and runnin' free Wild is the river, the river of no return Wild is the river, Wild and runnin' free Wild is the river, the river of no return
