Move On Down the Rolling River

Move on down the rolling river
Move on down towards the sea
Move on down the rolling river
As I live the life of me

Start so young with such dreams
Begins my journey so serene 
As I enter the mystic waters
Never sure of what will be

Move on down the rolling river 
Move on down towards the sea
Move on down the rolling river 
As I live the life of me

Crying tears of such sorrow 
Of my fears of tomorrow 
Continue on the odyssey 
With only faith that I believe

Move on down the rolling river 
Move on down towards the sea
Move on down the rolling river 
As I live the life of me

Taste of love so ever free
And laughter endlessly
Makes living such ecstasy 
As I enter into the sea
