Leaves are falling down.
On the beautiful ground
I heard a story from the man in red
He said the leaves are falling down
Such a beautiful sound son I think you,
better go ahead.

But you always hold your head up high
Cause it's a long, long, long way down
This town was meant for passing through
Boy, it ain't nothing new
Now go and show them
that the world stayed round
but it's a long, long, long way down

You better run for the hills before they burn
listen to the sound of the world
but watch it turn
I just want to show you what I know
and catch you when the current lets you go

Or should I just get along with myself
I never did get along with everybody else
I've been trying hard to do what's right
but you know I could stay here
all night
and watch the clouds fall from the sky

This river is wild
This river is wild

Run for the hills before they burn
listen to the sound of the world
but watch it turn
(I shake a little)
sometimes I'm nervous when I talk
(I shake a little)
sometimes I hate the line I walk
I just want to show you what I know
and catch you when the current lets you go

Or should I just get along with myself
I never did get along with everybody else
I've been trying hard to do what's right
but you know I could stay here all night
and watch the clouds fall from the sky

Because this river is wild
Godspeed ya, boy
this river is wild

Now Adam's taking bombs
and he's stuck on his mom
because that b____ keeps trying to make him pray
He's with the hippie in the park
combing over the dark
just trying to get some of that little girl play

You better run for the hills before they burn
listen to the sound of the world
but watch it turn
I just want to show you what I know
and catch you when the current lets you go

Or should I get along with myself
I never did get along with everybody else
I've been trying hard to do what's right
but you know I could stay here all night
and watch the clouds fall from the sky

And pay in this hell in me tonight
because this river is wild
godspeed you, boy
this river is wild
this river is wild
godspeed you, boy
this river is wild

Now the cars are everywhere
lacing dust to the fairgrounds
I don't think I ever seen so many headlights
but there's something pulling me
the circus and the crew
well they're just passing through
making sure the merry still goes 'round
but it's a long long long way down
