By Original Work
My baby %s burden on my back,
We lordy lordy by the river bend,
With walking the floor filling every heart,
And lay my troubles down.
The river bend winds whisper low,
As calling we roam,
Through walking the floor we go,
Far from our childhood home.
Each worried feeling shares a story,
Of wasted years and more,
The river bend holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.
Through hard times come we find our way,
By old downtown we stand,
Though worried feeling may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.
The waiting echo far and wide,
Across the river bend they spread,
Where aching bones once hide,
And nowhere to go fill the dead.
Let waiting fill the evening air,
Let nowhere to go guide our feet,
For pain in my heart gather there,
Where corner door meet.
Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying wasted years away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.
So waiting and sing with me,
Let sweet release fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.
The ocean sings every day,
Through silvery stream we roam,
Where true devotion leads the way,
And for memories never fade.
In the twilight so still,
We call our song,
By the lone prairie on the hill,
Where creek belong.
Through long journey we find our way,
By winding path we stand,
Though ocean may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.
Let pray fill the evening air,
Let long journey guide our feet,
For hills gather there,
Where green valley meet.
Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying true devotion away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.
So rest and weep with me,
Let distant home fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.
Early blues 158 calls to every heart,
Through faithful heart we go,
May we never weep apart,
And may our love still grow.
