Floating down Old Man River
Swearing at the sidewalk
Getting lost in shop talk, losing my halo
Wondering where the days go
Swift current take me down
Days go, swift current takes me down
Getting lost in a coulee with Tom Dooley
Feeling young, here I come
Oh cash grab me behind the ear
Eddies got a gun I saw him in the mirror
Eddies got a gun I saw him in that
Old Man River take me down
Old Man River take me down
Old Man River take me down
Old Man River take me down
Putting on a decadent coat, lets hope it floats when
When the tide comes in
Lets scrap that movie scene,
You know the one
With you, me and the factory downtown
You, me and the factory downtown
Floating down Old Man River
Swearing at the ceiling
Getting bit by politics
Losing my humour
Wondering were the days where
Swift current took me down
Days where swift current in that
Old Man River take me down
Old Man River take me down
Old Man River take me down
Old Man River take me down
