River Blue lyrics

River Blue

Verse
There´s a boat on the river lots of folks, they walk in a line
The river runs red, not green, cause of the people inside
Then the river runs blue when the people´s ashore

There´s a boat on the river where the captain speaks loud and clear
no food, no drink, no sleep we got no time to spare
then the river runs free till the lies disappear

Chorus
I crossed the border, I crossed the line
I touched your border, I touched the line

Verse
There´s a boat on the river where the prisoners work in chains
The crew is rough and drunk, using captives for games
When the drunks fall asleep, still the torture remains

Chorus
I crossed the border, I crossed the line
I touched your border, I touched the line
I crossed the border, I crossed the line
I touched your border, I touched the line

Verse
There´s a boat on the river that sails upon the dead
It goes up and down way south to the fields up ahead
Then the river runs blue when the people´s ashore
Then the river runs blue when the people´s ashore
Then the river runs blue when the people´s ashore


Stream here.
