Riverside Child from Talkin About by waterstreet blues band

Born by the river 10,000 years old
Tall green willows shade a brand new soul
Rock-a-bye train at stop 19
Daddy wearing down in a factory machine
Weeping willow growing just a little bit wild
Takes me all the way back to that riverside child

Run across the bridge counting railway ties
skipping stones on water from the other side
Mama and me rode the truck at sunrise
Climbing cherry trees with all the other immigrant wives
Weeping willow growing just a little bit wild
Takes me all the way back to that riverside child

Train rumbles by Counting the days
River flooding and tears in her eyes
Mind on a getaway

Trading empty pockets by the campfire light
River and the rail rocks another night
Vagabond stories where the cat tails grow
barefoot and blue jeans all the way home
Weeping willow growing just a little bit wild
Takes me all the way HOME to that riverside child
