Transcript
00:00I'm backing up the lorry, can't wait for our night to come
00:20I'm sweeping out the backyard on a Friday afternoon
00:24We'll gather round the place, we'll head out for the stars
00:28Pack the van with poetry, drums and the guitars
00:32We'll take Winnie for the whiskey, Winnie for the door
00:36We'll take Manny, Kate and Lizzie for the dance and roll the floors
00:40We've turned the Sunday hall into a city full of lights
00:44And let the summer spirits through the passing of the night
00:48Oh, there was laughing and there were tears
00:53There were so many shattered hopes and dreams
00:57But death was treasured in forty years
01:01In the place where the rivers run
01:05We'll have her on the Tuesday, we'll lay it on a snare
01:09Romancing the accordions, waltzing at the air
01:13These sacred swing anthems within our lovers grasp
01:17Stripping down the willow to the footsteps of the past
01:21Oh, there was laughing and there were tears
01:26There were so many shattered hopes and dreams
01:29But death was treasured in forty years
01:33In the place where the rivers run
01:56We wear kings and queens, the wheels go round
02:13It's the badge of our torture, say it loud
02:17It's all in the gift of the young and the proud
02:21In the place where the rivers run
02:25We're loading out the back door, now the hour has come
02:29We're driving through the black hills to the red and rising sun
02:33There's a river in the distance, as far as our eyes can see
02:37Home by Kyle and Broadford, run by Memphis, Tennessee
02:43Oh, oh yeah
02:47Let's see your hands up
02:50Let's see every single hand in the air tonight
02:54There was laughing and there were tears
02:58There were so many shattered hopes and dreams
03:02But death was treasured in forty years
03:06In the place where the rivers run
03:10Oh, there was laughing and there were tears
03:14There were so many shattered hopes and dreams
03:18But death was treasured in forty years
03:22In the place where the rivers run
03:26In the place where the rivers run
03:30In the place where the rivers run
03:41Three, four
03:50Come on, everybody have a chance
03:56There we go
03:58I run, I run
04:02We run, we run
04:07I run, run, run
04:11To the place where the rivers run
04:15I run, I run
04:17We run, we run
04:23I run, run, run
04:27To the place where the rivers run
