    Blue water
    Black bible
    Old river
    Come quietly
    Just asking
    A glass of water
    They don't know me
    Don't try me

    Nobody gonna pick me up
    I'm falling down
    And I'm 5th Street Bound
    Now nobody wanna fill me up
    I've fallen down
    None of my friends around

    Seen it on the news
    Looked like me and you
    Did they hear me calling?

    Blue water
    Black rider
    Keep on rolling
    Keep on riding
    Old silver
    Old Tar River
    Keep running
    Black water
    Old river
    That old Tar River
    Just keeps rising
    Inside me

    Nobody gonna pick me up
    I'm falling down
    And I'm 5th Street Bound

    Seen it on the news
    Some never seem to lose
    They say, the rest are fallen
    I seen it on the news
    It wasn't mine to lose
    Do they hear me calling?

    Keep rising
    (The river seethes)
    (Parting the ground beneath me)
    Keep rising
    (Just like the sea)
    Oh, Tar River
    (Watching it washing over)
    Tar River
    (The broken reeds)
    It grows inside me
    (Gambling the rushing water)

    Keeps on running (over me)
    Keeps rising (over me)
    Keeps rising (over me)
    (Over me)
    Keeps rising
    Keep rising
