Hey Rivers

One, two One, two, three Drove across the Natchez bridge today You opened up the door Had to be wondering "What's this handle for?" You gave us both a heart attack Like you do 'most every day Lord knows we wouldn't have it any other way Hey Rivers, oh Rivers You're a joy tornado Rivers Just like your name you're making your way back home You saw a squirrel You thought it was a monkey Big old smile said that you were funny Every day's a party When you live like an ice cream cake In a candy store with a criminal's grin Chocolate running down your chin again Skipping stones at sunset down at Nickajack Lake Hey Rivers, oh Rivers You're a joy tornado Rivers Just like your name you're making your way back home Hey Rivers, oh Rivers Moving like all those Tennessee rivers Going to the ocean making their way back home Why should you walk when you can run? Moving at a slow pace isn't any fun To take the time to say hello Making new friends wherever you go Hey Rivers, oh Rivers You're a joy tornado Rivers Just like your name you're making your way back home Hey Rivers, oh Rivers Moving like all those Tennessee rivers Going to the ocean making their way back home Just like a road trip making your way back home Just like your name you're making your way back home
