DEEP LIKE THE RIVERS

Deep like the rivers at dawn
Deep like the rivers roll on
Take my body to the bosom of old
Streams of mud turn to rivers of gold

Deep like the rivers at dawn 
Deep like the rivers roll on
By the time of the coming of Abraham
Ancient waters rolled cuttin' across the land

 Raise your weary eyes 
 To the clayborne banks and the purple skies
 Walk like the river roll
 To the hills of blue across fields of snow

Deep like the rivers at dawn
Deep like the rivers roll on
Grandpa smilin' in the easy chair
Rockin' slowly in the viper's lair
