Back To The River

by Susan Tedeschi

on Back To The River (2008)

Wake in a cold sweat
Nightmare by my bed
Waiting for the rider
Wondering through my head

'Cause I'm a long way from home
On the highway too long
Got road dust in my mouth
I need to head down south

And get back to the river
Back to the river
Oh back to the river
Back to the river to take my time

So I can think about the little ones
Keep them in my heart
Born in a bad storm
An't no good when we're apart

Well I'm miss their hugs
And chasing lighting bugs
They make me smile, but it's gonna take a little while

To get back to the river,
Back to the river
Oh back to the river
Oh back to the river to take my time

There's a full moon rising out tonight
Might make be crazy but that all right
Long as I find som peace of mine

I'm going back to the river to take my time

Where there's a campfire going
Warm breezes blowing
Mose hanging from the trees
I'll have all that I need

When I get back to the river
Oh back to the river
Back to the river
Oh back to the river

Oh back now
Oh lord I got'a got'a get back
Lord lord back now
Back to the river
Oh back to the river right now
Oh oh
