River (live)

Freddy was a loner
He's been living as a rover
But all in all, his dreams
And all the melodies in his head keep him lucid

He's been smoking cigarettes and chewing dip to fit in Texas
He's jumping off of shit, he's smiling but really reckless
He's all alone and he's freaking now. But in his dreams he's lucid

Said slow down, Mississippi stream
Can you ship me up to Ohio please
Oh I don't belong down in New Orleans
Because all they say is New Orleans (accent)

And no town, Mississippi sky
How it's looking like me and you tonight
When I dream of home, your not in my mind
But we roll on
We still roll on

Oh this river
Oh this river
Is she ever
Is she ever going to
Change her ways, well that I doubt
Mississippi you led me
Down
Down

Whoa now, Mississippi sky
How it's looking like me and you tonight
When I dream of home, your not in my mind
But we roll on
We still roll on

Oh this river
Oh this river
Is she ever going to change?

Take me up north
Take me up north
Take me way up north
Take me up north, up north

Thought I saw a city light, it's just refineries
My cigarette alone, keeps reminding me
Im breathing in the smoke
Down in New Orleans

Smoking cigarettes and chewing dip to fit in Texas
He's jumping off of shit, he's smiling but really reckless
Oh he's way down
Oh he's way down

Smoking cigarettes and chewing dip to fit in Texas
He wanders in the sticks and starts to wonder where the west ends
Oh he's way down
Oh he's way, way, way down

Ooo ooo
Ooo ooo
