The River Bank-Bert Jansch[00:00:02]
Sitting on the river bank[00:00:16]
Watching the water flow[00:00:18]
Sitting here thinking and wondering[00:00:22]
Which way to go [00:00:24]
How the river sings the sweetest songs[00:00:30]
In a million harmonies[00:00:33]
But the sun shines brighter on the other side[00:00:37]
That's where l want to be[00:00:41]
So please mister ferryman[00:00:45]
Won't you take me to the other side [00:00:48]
Where the songbirds sing for me[00:00:51]
Where life is led by the hand of fate[00:00:55]
That's how it ought to be[00:00:58]
When the evening shadows reach out[00:01:21]
At the setting of the sun[00:01:24]
Will l still be wishing and a-wondering[00:01:28]
When the morning comes [00:01:31]
For l once could swim against the tide[00:01:36]
Like the salmon who swims for home[00:01:39]
But I'll be happy now just to hitch a ride[00:01:43]
And make it on my own[00:01:46]
So please mister ferryman[00:01:52]
Won't you take me to the other side [00:01:55]
Where the songbirds sing for me[00:01:58]
Where life is led by the hand of fate[00:02:01]
That's how it ought to be[00:02:06]
Well I'll take you says the ferryman[00:02:21]
But if l should close my eyes[00:02:28]
And fall asleep before we land[00:02:31]
You must take these oars and forever more[00:02:34]
Be at my command[00:02:39]
