The River Always Wins Lyrics – Mark Erelli
Singer: Mark Erelli
Title: The River Always Wins
At the diner downtown old timers sit around
Talk about the flood of ‘42
How they watched from higher ground, as the water took it down
Like a verse from the bible come true
After losing everything, you could hear the hammers ring
As they built it back up again
The mill wheels turned, they kneeled in church
Washed of all their sins
But the river always wins
I come down from the mountain
Like judgment from on high
Going home to the ocean
And I don’t give a damn
About the dreams of man
And I won’t be denied
I’ve seen boys with fishing poles and born again souls
Lovers with their hearts ablaze
I’ve always been there, for the lonely in despair
I took a few in my dark embrace
I’ve seen the mills pull out and the jobs go south
It ain’t ever been the same way since
For every thing they try to change, I will always remain
I’ll be damned but I won’t give in
‘Cause the river always wins
I come down from the mountain
Like judgment from on high
Going home to the ocean
And I don’t give a damn
About the dreams of man
And I won’t be denied
