The Riverflow (live) - The Levellers[00:00:00]
Written by:Charlie Heather/Jeremy Cunningham/Jon Sevink/Mark Chadwick/Simon Friend[00:00:02]
I met you in eight two[00:00:14]
Over a crate of beer and not a few[00:00:15]
I cracked a can and so did you[00:00:17]
We're going to change the world[00:00:18]
The ghetto kings of downside town the estates and parks of our hallowed ground[00:00:19]
Doing anything that we found[00:00:22]
And on the river flowed[00:00:24]
You'd take a drink from rev[00:00:28]
Jimmy Jones[00:00:29]
You'd cross the street on the path the gunman roams[00:00:30]
Thrown aside and left to waste that was you[00:00:34]
You knew your place[00:00:36]
Wander round get off your face and on the river flowed[00:00:37]
On and on the river flow we are the undertow[00:00:41]
On and on the river flow we are the undertow[00:00:47]
I don't know how you made it through all the smoke and brew you do[00:01:05]
It sure has left[00:01:08]
It's mark on you but you're still with us today[00:01:09]
Life goes on and round we go and words can kill these things I know[00:01:11]
Sometimes you cut deeply so but on the river flows[00:01:14]
You'd set the table for barber Sweeney Todd[00:01:19]
You'd clip the wings of any rising God[00:01:23]
But man can't live on hope alone it can be cut all that is grown[00:01:25]
Broke your spirit but not your bones and on the river flows[00:01:28]
On and on the river flow we are the undertow[00:01:34]
On and on the river flow we are the undertow[00:01:39]
You're working now forced to the race I know it left a bitter taste[00:02:21]
But the rising tide had covered your face[00:02:23]
Nothing you could do[00:02:25]
But I still remember the day you said[00:02:27]
That the river flowing through my head[00:02:28]
Would take me far or leave me dead[00:02:30]
And all you said was true[00:02:31]
