The Wooden Sky Follow

Well, we built this house on a web of lies
And when the walls fell in I came to realize
That if your love don’t leave you then you’re allright
And baby we’ve a-got it made

Well, the river rose up and came to me last night
And took the hat right off of my head
You said, Honey don’t you let it push you on your back
Because you forgot your age

Come on and save me
Take me to the river and bathe me
Just don’t let nobody else claim me, honey
Take me to the river and name me
Tell me that it’s all right

Well, the late King Henry came to me last night
Said you get your wings when you go straight
Well, no one on the river ever needed to fly
To lead their poor hearts astray

Come on and save me
Take me to the river and bathe me
Just don’t let nobody else claim me, honey
Take me to the river and change me
Tell me that it’s all right!

Yeah, tell me that it’s all right!
