Lyrics
0:09All I need is a little tender touch
0:12And yet we burn the coal
0:18Oh, baby, I heard what you've been saying
0:22and I know that we will be all right.
0:27You are just a tired girl
0:29and I am just a tired boy
0:32And we ain't gonna let it fall
0:38But you can't, but you can't let me take you down
0:41'cause we got to take it slow
0:45Oh but I, I am just working hard
0:51and you, you
0:54you're just working through it
0:56And all of us,
0:58ah, we just play it cool
1:01Your love, my love, our love
1:03oh, it's like a mighty river, baby.
1:19Please, lord, can you hear my prayer?
1:24Don't let it fall on deaf ears
1:30But ain't nobody hearin' me
1:32so I guess I'll just have to speak it.
1:39She is just a pure girl
1:41and I am just a dirty boy
1:43And we're just tryin' to work it through
1:49But there ain't, but there ain't no one to cut me
1:53like the words that she used.
1:57Oh but I, I am just working hard
2:03and you, you
2:06you've been just working, too
2:08And all of us,
2:09ah, we just play it cool
2:13Your love, my love, our love
2:15oh, it's like a mighty river, baby.
2:27Gotta let it, let it flow,
2:34Gotta let it, let it flow...
2:54I know, I know
2:55I've gotta, gotta
2:59You've gotta let it flow,
3:04I said let it flow.
All I need is a little tender touch And yet we burn the coal Oh, baby, I heard what you've been saying and I know that we will be all right. You are just a tired girl and I am just a tired boy And we ain't gonna let it fall But you can't, but you can't let me take you down 'cause we got to take it slow Oh but I, I am just working hard and you, you you're just working through it And all of us, ah, we just play it cool Your love, my love, our love oh, it's like a mighty river, baby. Please, lord, can you hear my prayer? Don't let it fall on deaf ears But ain't nobody hearin' me so I guess I'll just have to speak it. She is just a pure girl and I am just a dirty boy And we're just tryin' to work it through But there ain't, but there ain't no one to cut me like the words that she used. Oh but I, I am just working hard and you, you you've been just working, too And all of us, ah, we just play it cool Your love, my love, our love oh, it's like a mighty river, baby. Gotta let it, let it flow, Gotta let it, let it flow... I know, I know I've gotta, gotta You've gotta let it flow, I said let it flow.
