Hold Back The River |
| Stop your pretending |
| Listen to what I’ve got to say |
| How your head’s went away |
| Only here for a day |
| And that grave I just made |
| Is for me when I get paid |
| Won’t you wait a while |
| Move to the blue |
| Sometimes people don’t want to say |
| Old time dancers don’t die that way |
| See that grave I’ve just made |
| It’s for me when I get paid |
| Somebody’s gotta hold back the river |
| Somebody like you |
| Do you love and surrender |
| Sometimes I don’t feel I can remember |
| I think it’s fair to mention |
| About the days when I get paid |
| Somebody’s gotta hold back the river |
| Somebody like you |
| Somebody’s gotta hold back the river |
| Somebody like you |
| I want a little loving |
| I told you all to listen |
| But you never liked what you heard |
| I take what I am given |
| This may sound absurd |
| I share a double vision |
| That started the transition |
| Hey where’s jimmy jazz |
| Steady on the scale |
| I told you to listen |
| I told you all to listen |
| Somebody’s gotta hold back the river |
| Somebody like you |
| Somebody’s gotta hold back the river |
| Somebody like you |
| You know that somebody |
| You know that somebody |
| You know that somebody |
| But it ain’t you |
