Black river   Black river   Black river      The story?s still unfolding and like the river rolling   It's always moving like a tide   Seemingly unchanging   But of course nothing stays the same, you'll see      Black river   Black river   Black river      And if I scratch the surface and try to look to learn it   Oh, what fantastic worlds I'll find   Stay with me forever   Buried deep inside my mind, you'll see      Sha, la, la, la, la   I'm casting out my line   Although it?s floating by   Who knows what I'll find, we'll see      It's early in the morning, I watched a raindrop falling   So slim and tender from a leaf   It stays with me forever   Buried deep inside of me, you'll see      Black river   Black river   Black river      Black river   Black river   Black river   You drifter
