River Man Lyrics - Freedom & Surrender - Lizz Wright

Betty came by on her way 

Said she had a word to say 

About things today 

And fallen leaves. 

Said she hadn't heard the news 

Hadn't had the time to choose 

A way to lose 

But she believes. 

Going to see the river man 

Going to tell him all I can 

About the plan 

For lilac time.

If he tells me all he knows 

About the way his river flows 

And all night shows 

In summertime. 

Betty said she prayed today 

For the sky to blow away 

Or maybe stay 

She wasn't sure. 

For when she thought of summer rain 

Calling for her mind again 

She lost the pain 

And stayed for more. 

Going to see the river man 

Going to tell him all I can 

About the ban 

On feeling free.
