Kathy Mar - Drink Up the River слова песни




В© 1988 Kathy MarI was sitting by a river when the thought occurred to meThere are a hundred thousand rivers that we never even seeThey are the boundaries of all we know of truth and right and wrongAnd I have written some examples for you here within my songSome are bridged and some are forded, some are swollen from the rainsSome are the ultimate result of all our joy and all our painsBut when the rivers in your life are full and starting to wash downYou`ve got to drink up the river before you drownChorus: You`ve got to drink up the river, You`ve got to drink up the river, You`ve got to drink up the river before you drown You`ve got to drink up the river, You`ve got to drink up the river, You`ve got to drink up the river before you drown!And through our nation`s history, her times of peace and warAn overwhelming wave of misery has washed up on our shoreThey did not ask for any fortune, just a corner and a plateAnd how they shone with pride and honor as they made our country greatBut migrants now are deportees, and more are turned awayWe`ve forgotten it`s the immigrants who made our fame todayOur salvation is that flood: white, yellow, red,& black & brownWe`ve got to drink up that river before we drown ChorusWe are surrounded by technology, a flood that`s rising stillAnd we are praying we`ll survive it or we`re sure we never willAnd all our speed and skill and reach will soon be taking us to spaceIt`s a great day in the morning for our funny human raceBut we`re frightened of our future and we`re scared to move alongSo we scream that our technology is dangerous and wrongBack-to-nature cannot save us but the stars could be our crownIf we can drink up this river before we drown ChorusThere`s a river of humanity that`s passing through your lifeThere is a sea of heavy sorrows and a stream of pain and strifeThere is a river of tomorrow that will carry you awayAnd there`s an ocean full of endless love to fill each passing dayThere are rivers all around you in the life you have to liveAll the rivers you`ve been given and the ones you have to giveSo sing out this final message to the people all aroundYou`ve got to drink up the river before you drown Chorus
