paroles de chanson River Driver - Great Big Sea

I was just the age of 16 when i first went on the drive
After 6 months hard labor at home i did arrive
I courted with a pretty girl twas her caused me to roam
Now im a river driver and im far away from home
Ill eat when i am hungry and ill drink when i am dry
Get drunk whenever im ready get sober by and by
And if this river dont drown me this town ill mean to roam
For i am a river driver and im far away from home
Ill build a lonesome castle upon some mountain high
Where she can sit and view me as i go passing by
Where she can sit and view me as i go marching on
For i am a river driver and im far away from home
Ill eat when i am hungry and ill drink when i am dry
Get drunk whenever im ready get sober by and by
And if this river dont drown me this town ill mean to roam
For i am a river driver and im far away from home
When i am old and feeble and in my sickness lie
Just wrap me up in a blanket and lay me down to die
Just get a little blue bird to sing for me alone
For i am a river driver and im far away from home
Ill eat when i am hungry and ill drink when i am dry
Get drunk whenever im ready get sober by and by
And if this river dont drown me this town ill mean to roam
For i am a river driver and im far away from home
Ill eat when i am hungry and ill drink when i am dry
Get drunk whenever im ready get sober by and by
And if this river dont drown me this town ill mean to roam
For i am a river driver and im far away from home
For i am a river driver and im far away from home
