Sylvia - River Road lyrics

rate me

Here I go once again with my suitcase in my hand<br />

I'm running away down River Road<br />

And I swear, once again, that I'm never coming home<br />

I'm chasing my dreams down River Road<br />

<br />

Mama said, "Listen child, you're too old too run wild<br />

You're too big to go fishing with the boys these days<br />

So I grabbed my clothes and ran<br />

Stole five dollars from the sugar can<br />

Just a twelve-year-old jail-breaker running away.<br />

<br />

CHO<br />

<br />

Well I married a pretty good man and he tries to understand<br />

But he knows I've got leaving on my mind these days<br />

When I get that urge to run I'm just like a kid again<br />

A thirty-year-old jail-breaker running away.<br />

<br />

And here I go once again with my suitcase in my hand<br />

I'm running away down River Road<br />

And I swear once again that I'm never coming home<br />

In my dreams I still run down River Road
