Sweetwater

Sweetwater rolling Take me back to where it is I'm going I can hear the music calling down the river tonight My old man, he told me, "Don't give up Count your blessings when you fill that cup This dried up town, it's only in your way" "You pay your dues, choose your fights Keep on heading for them ceiling lights I swear that's where your fortune lies in wait" Sweetwater rolling Take me back to where it is I'm going I can hear the music calling down the river tonight Now my old man, he taught me, "Stay your ground The city moves a hundred miles an hour Don't forget to keep your head up high" "There's nothing wrong with a little pain The driest desert needs a bit of rain Now make me proud, stretch those eyes real wide" Sweetwater rolling Take me back to where it is I'm going I can hear the music calling down the river tonight Sweetwater rolling Take me back to where it is I'm going I can hear the music calling down the river tonight I can hear the music calling down the river tonight I can hear the music calling down the river tonight
