[Verse 1]
Someone left me all alone
I am far away from home
Scared to be wild and free

But I could be an Eskimo
Sleep in coat, out in the snow
Even they find a nose to kiss

[Pre-Chorus]
Have no care 'bout the clothes you wear
If your feet are bare, just keep on dancing
I felt my way to the river, babe
In the silence of the night, it came to me

[Chorus]
That no matter how tough this life I'll face
That every little thing is alright, just all that we will be
And the tides, they flow like life keeps changing
Every little thing is alright here

[Post-Chorus]
'Cause we all go to the river
All go down to the river

[Pre-Chorus]
Have no care 'bout the way you swing
Or the way you sway, just keep on dancing
I felt my way to the river, babe
In the silence of the night, it came to me

[Chorus]
That no matter how tough this life I'll face
That every little thing is alright, just all that will be will be
And the tides, they flow like life keeps changing
Every little thing is alright here

[Post-Chorus]
'Cause we all go to the river
Yes, we all go down to the river
Yes, we all go to the river
Yes, we all go to the river
