Ain't no place in this world I belong
Sun turned round and told me to be gone
I've become a vulture
Feeding on your culture
With strings for wings I'm bound to care e on
No way words can tell you how I feel
My heart has made my soul into a meal
My recommended suggestion
Don't wait for digestion
Fly away with both hands on the wheel
And roll on raining river roll on
Roll until my memories are gone
Roll on through the dark
Until the break of dawn
Roll on river roll on
I've had all the blessings I can take
I break all the promises I make
I hope that you can listen
It's not with ill intention
My shame sank to the bottom of a lake
Life is blood flowing in your brain
Steam that turns the drivers of the train
Water on the wheel
Grist for the mill
Keep on grinding pleasure into pain
And roll on raining river roll on
Roll until my memories are gone
Roll to where you're bound
Turn it all around
Roll on river roll on
A painting hangs unfinished on the wall
A woman waiting wrapped up in a shawl
Brush strokes in her hair
A belly soft and bare
Canvas where there's nothing there at all
Sky outside is turning into clouds
Inside hope is turning into doubts
Emotions run together
Predictable as wether
A storm can turn a home into a house
And roll on raining river roll on
Roll until my memories are gone
Send a flood of tears
Wash away all fears
Roll on river roll on
