Flowing Lyrics - The Gun Club

Underneath where nobody finds me 

All the brothers are gone 

I can see the passing refugees 

Flowing 

They are flowing 

Nobody saw it get into my head 

No, they can't find me 

Calling loud in the dark ravine 

Flowing 

Oh, I'm flowing 

Flowing back along the village river bed 

As the water flows underneath my head 

All the brothers have gone back overseas 

Girlies pass me by 

I had the meanest heart you've ever seen 

Flowing 

Oh I'm flowing 

If I could crawl out of this yawning earth 

Go find Suzy-Boo 

We'd smoke gold in the dreamland too 

Flowing 

We are flowing 

Flowing by my river to the sea 

By my mean old spirit in the tree 

I turned my face to the sound above 

No, they can't see me 

Old bones are just food for the trees 

Flowing 

Oh, I'm flowing 

There was lies and fires in the hills 

Down the living streets 

Their smoke blows back my memories 

Flowing 

Oh, I'm flowing 

Flowing down the river to the sea 

Flowing mean old bones in the stream 

If these old bones could ever sail a while 

For an extra mile 

They'd flow just like the river Nile 

Flowing 

They are flowing
