| When I went to river cause the river wouldn’t bend to me
|
| And I saw my reflection but I hated what I seen
|
| The water stood up, she filled my lungs
|
| Spilled out the poison from my blackened tongue
|
| So I love you mother like a newborn son
|
| Wendy do run run, da do run run
|
| You carry my heart though it weighs a ton
|
| Wendy do run run, da do run run
|
| When I went to the city cause the city didn’t know my name (know my name)
|
| Still I saw my reflection and I hated what I seen
|
| The sun came up almost every night
|
| Had a line and a number and a pocket knife
|
| They took my daughters and replaced my wife
|
| So I ran to the river but she turned to the right
|
| So I love you mother like a newborn son
|
| Wendy do run run, da do run run
|
| You carry my heart though it weighs a ton
|
| Wendy do run run, da do run run
|
| So I love you mother like a newborn son
|
| Wendy do run run, da do run run
|
| You carry my heart though it weighs a ton
|
| Wendy do run run, da do run run |
