River Jordan Lyrics - Felice Brothers

river jordan, won't you wake my pharoah 

so he can teach my people 

to walk the straight and narrow 

come lie beside me 

in a horse drawn carriage 

drug through the thorns 

past the morgue, past the parish 

oh lord i wanna go 

back to the land that i once knew 

far past these fields of bloody snow 

back to the sand 

back to the sand 

back home again 

fuck the news 

fuck the house of blues 

fuck my whole career 

you don't want me here 

let me know 

where my love ones go 

it's not fair to keep it hid 

tell me what i did 

take me back 

to when the world was black 

before the sun was made 

a picnic in the shade 

oh lord, oh lord, i wanna go 

back to the land i once knew 

far past these fields of bloody snow 

back to the sand 

back to the sand 

back home again
