Back To The River

There's blue skies all around me
 And the world looks just the same
 It's hard to be criminal
 When you all know my name
 Sometimes I wonder
 Sometimes I wanna be free
 Well, you can be king of me
 And I'll be the queen
 ♪
 No one listens to me
 The words I have to say
 There ain't no doubt about it
 I'm just trying to get away
 I'm going back to the river
 Where no one will find me
 
 We're going back to the river
 Back to the sea
 
 When I was just a baby
 My mama taught me
 "Girl, you best believe in Jesus
 If you'll make it in the world"
 I'm going back to the river
 Where no one knows my name
 
 We are going back to the river
 Back to the Seine
 Here we go

 No one listens to me
 The words I have to say
 There ain't no doubt about it
 I'm just fading into gray
 I'm going back to the river
 Where the devil can't find me
 
 I'm going back to the river
 Back to the sea
