Wild Is the River

I don't need a hurricane blowin', to tell me there's a storm around
I don't need no chain around my neck, to tell me that I'm all tied down
All I needed was a little satisfaction, tryin' to put me back on the track
What I get is a typical reaction, for me there'll be no turnin' back

Wild is the river, Wild and runnin' free
Wild is the river, the river of no return
Wild is the river, Wild and runnin' free
Wild is the river, the river of no return

I don't need a telegram to tell me, I got the message long ago
I have seen the writing on the wall, telling me it's time to go
I don't need it spelled out to the letter
To tell me that I'm on the wrong track
All I know is that a chance is for the better
There'll never be no turnin' back

Wild is the river, Wild and runnin' free
Wild is the river, the river of no return
Wild is the river, Wild and runnin' free
Wild is the river, the river of no return

I don't need a preacher here to show me
Or tell me where I'm going wrong
I don't need no money in my jeans
"Cause I know that I'll get along
All I know, a change is surely comin'
Gonna turn your world around
Watching as the river is a -flowin'
Listen and you'll hear the sound

Wild is the river, Wild and runnin' free
Wild is the river, the river of no return
Wild is the river, Wild and runnin' free
Wild is the river, the river of no return
