There's a river of ol' mem'ries
On the same rock i was born
Crossin' water fills a book
O' them pages sadly torn
The rain keeps fallin' down
From my home to sweeter skies
The water's singin' wonders
But i dont remember why
Chorus
I dont remember why you came
And left me all alone
God help us one God help us all
Where i dont belong
Rockin' chair kept her eyes
Shinnin' out the window
Childhood passin' by
Too fast for me to cry
Chorus
Grandmother's crown has gone to fill
Grandfather's eyes with tears
Miles from home she cannot face
That bedsheet round her waist
Chorus
Chorus
