Lyrics

0:06There's blue skies all around me
0:09And the world looks just the same
0:13It's hard to be criminal when you all know my name
0:20Sometimes I wonder sometimes I wanna be free
0:26Well you can be king of me and I'll be the queen
0:44No one listens to me the words I have to say
0:50There ain't no doubt about it I'm just trying to get away
0:55I'm going back to the river where no one will find me
1:05We're going back to the river back to the sea
1:16When I was just a baby my mama taught me
1:20Girl you best believe in Jesus if you'll make it in the world
1:26I'm going back to the river where no one knows my name
1:36We are going back to the river back to the seine
1:45Here we go
2:52There's blue skies all around me
2:55And the world looks just the same
2:59It's hard to be criminal when they all know my name
3:05Sometimes I wonder sometimes I wanna be free
3:11Well you can be king of me
3:13And I'll be the queen
3:31No one listens to me the words I have to say
3:36There ain't no doubt about it I'm just fading into gray
3:42I'm going back to the river where the devil can't find me
3:53I'm going back to the river back to the sea
There's blue skies all around me
And the world looks just the same
It's hard to be criminal when you all know my name
Sometimes I wonder sometimes I wanna be free
Well you can be king of me and I'll be the queen
No one listens to me the words I have to say
There ain't no doubt about it I'm just trying to get away
I'm going back to the river where no one will find me
We're going back to the river back to the sea
When I was just a baby my mama taught me
Girl you best believe in Jesus if you'll make it in the world
I'm going back to the river where no one knows my name
We are going back to the river back to the seine
Here we go
There's blue skies all around me
And the world looks just the same
It's hard to be criminal when they all know my name
Sometimes I wonder sometimes I wanna be free
Well you can be king of me
And I'll be the queen
No one listens to me the words I have to say
There ain't no doubt about it I'm just fading into gray
I'm going back to the river where the devil can't find me
I'm going back to the river back to the sea
