River in the Rain Songtext

von Roger Miller

River in the rain
Sometimes at night you look like a long white train
Winding your way away somewhere
River I love you, don't you care

If you're on the run winding someplace
Just trying to find the sun
Whether the sunshine, whether the rain
River I love you just the same

But sometimes in a time of trouble
When you're out of hand
And your muddy bubbles roll across my floor
Carrying away the things I treasure
Hell, that ain't no way to measure
Why I love you more than I did the day before

River in the rain
Sometimes at night you look like a long white train
Winding your way away somewhere
River I love you, don't you care

But sometimes in a time of trouble
When you're out of hand
And your muddy bubbles roll across my floor
Carrying away the things I treasure
Hell, that ain't no way to measure
Why I love you more, than l did the day before

River in the rain,
Sometimes at night you look like a long white train
Winding your way away from me
River I've never seen the sea
