I'm a mighty river
As deep as I am cold
Running over rocks and dirt
Such a heavy load
Still I love to wander
Still I love to roam
I'm a mighty river
As deep as I am old

As deep as I am old
As deep as I am old
(As deep as I am old)
As deep as I am old

I'm the blood that feeds the earth
The bones inside the skin
I'm the will that crushes doubt
The kindness in the mean
Yet I get so lonely
Beneath a billion stars
Solitary river
Running all night long

Running all night long
Running all night long
Running all night long

Ooh, ooh
Come down the river with me
Come down the river, come down the river
Come down the river with me

Whenever I am weary
Whenever I am low
I pull a body under
And swallow up a soul
I wash away the houses
And suffocate the town
I pull a body under
And watch that body drown
Watch that body drown
Watch that body drown

I'm a mighty river
As deep as I am cold
Running over rocks and dirt
With such a heavy load
Still I love to wander
Still I love to roam
I'm a might river
As deep as I am old
As deep as I am old, hey, yeah
As deep as I am old

Oh, come down the river with me
Oh, come down the river, come down the river
Come down the river with me, yeah

Come down the river with me
Come down the river with me, yeah
Come down the river, come down the river
Come down the river with me, yeah

Come down the river with me
Come down the river with me, baby
Come on
