i’m going down to the river
just to bide my time away
don’t you look for me tomorrow
cause i won’t be back this way
oh girl i hate to leave you
but i just can’t seem to stay
when i see the sunrise in your eyes
darling i’ll be on the way
the miles go by so slowly
it seems that time stands still
i long for the day that i can settle down
but i guess i never will
oh the cities they pass by me
like the ships that sail the sea
lord i here that highway calling
darling i hope you’ll wait for me
oh it’s cold here in the city
i live my life from day to day
guess i’ll always be a rambler
but it’s so hard to find my way
lord i need someone to help me
i just can’t go on this way
i need your smiling face beside me
so darling i’m coming home today
