Watching the River Flow (Bob Dylan cover) Lyrics


What’s the matter with me

I don’t have much to say

Daylight sneakin’ through the window

And I’m still in this all-night café

Walkin’ to and fro beneath the moon

Out to where the trucks are rollin’ slow

To sit down on this bank of sand

And watch the river flow

Well, I wish I was back in the city

Instead of this old bank of sand

With the sun beating down over the chimney tops

And my true love so close at hand

If I had wings and I can fly

I know where I would go

Right now I’ll just sit here so contentedly

And watch the river flow

Well, people disagreeing is too bad of thing here,

Makes you stop and all wonder why

Only yesterday I saw someone on the street

Who just couldn’t help but cry

Oh, this ol’ river keeps on rollin’, though

Whatever way the wind does blow

I’ll just sit here and watch the river flow

People disagreeing everywhere you look

Makes you wanna stop and read a book

Only yesterday I saw someone on the street

That was really shook

Well, this ol’ river keeps on rollin’, though

Whatever way the wind does blow

As long as it does I’ll just sit here

And watch the river flow

Yes, as long as it does I’ll just sit here

And watch the river flow

Nobody knows
