Arnold McCuller - The River Knows Your Name lyrics

Oh, the river knows your name And your tears falling like the rain All around you suffering and pain Oh, the river knows your name And the river hears you cry As the lightning cracks the open sky As your momma sings a lullaby Oh, the river, she knows why Let the river wash you down Beneath the surface with a rushing sound Like a freight train pa**ing through a town Let the river wash you down Let the river take away All the words you and I could never say In the silence, darling, let us pray Let the river take it all away
