Sittin’ here watchin’ that red and white bobber go up and down Man ’bout to go I know I set a hook any second now Got the prettiest thing you ever did see told in the door Everytime I looked at her It feels like heaven on earth On this side of the river While the sun above me shines Make the most of every moment Of every little bit of peace I find When it comes to crossin’ over Lord let me take my time ‘Cause right now this side of the river Is suitin’ me just fine Wasn’t long ago I was a wonderin’ soul I didn’t give a damn Moments like these I can’t help but think I’m a lucky man Right now I gotta say I wouldn’t take them wings even if I could
Even though I probably should But right now life’s too good On this side of the river While the sun above me shines Make the most of every moment Of every little bit of peace I find When it comes to crossin’ over Lord let me take my time ‘Cause right now this side of the river Is suitin’ me just fine On this side of the river While the sun above me shines Make the most of every moment Of every little bit of peace I find When it comes to crossin’ over Lord let me take my time ‘Cause right now this side of the river Is suitin’ me just fine Is suitin’ me just fine
