The Duhks - Down To The River lyrics

rate me

I went down to the river

But the river was dry

I went down to the sea

But it was not the place to be

So I climbed the highest mountain

And I climbed to the mountaintop

Girl, I found me a home

And I don't have to roam

Au bord de la rivie're

Mais la rivie're e'tait se`che

Au bord de la mer gras

n'e'tait pas la place pour moi

Je trouve la plus haute montagne

Mais la montagne e'tait trop haute

Oh j'ai trouve' mon foyer

Il faut plus me promener

Well I went down to the river

But the river was dry

I went down to the sea

But it was not the place to be

So I climbed the highest mountain

And I climbed to the mountaintop

Girl, I found me a home

And you know I can't stop

Oh je chante ma p'tit chanson

Avec l'esprit de la Louisiane

Oh je viens des grandes prairies

Les grandes prairies de Manitoba

Oh la langue est tout la me^me

Mais la culture un p'tit peu diffe'rent

Oh c'est toute une grande famille

Je chante pour toi, je chante por moi!
