Down the River
Slow down the boat
down down the river we
go.
Strong currents pushing
us down.
Down down the river we
go.
Barely dodging rocks and
tree stumps
down down the river we
go.
With wobbly legs we try
to stand
down down the river we
go.
I see a waterfall coming
up ahead
down down the river we
go.
How i wish we had an
anchor
down down the river we
go.
With a cry for help and
vigorous paddling
down down the river we
go.
To a drowning death
which we deny
down down the river we
go.
