White Water
Down on the river where the water's white
Down on the rocks where the rapids fight
I want to be
I got to be there
Down in the river my face is white
A passenger I’m terrified
You're teasing me you're teasing my nerve

And when we were living the life of a neurotic urbanite
Storing daydreams in so many plans
I fancy the life of a frontier advеnturer
Challenging natures dеmands

You’re my white water river
Will you be my partner
What's your desire? What's your desire
My white water river

The challenge is open
You wallow when you're lonely Poor you!
And why'd you run away like a stranger baby?
Why'd you run away from your boy?
You drink your sorrows drunk drink 'em down
You wallow when you're lonely- What do I say?
