My River

ARTHUR JOHNSTON, MAURICE SIGLER

We're just a lot of helpless human creatures
All of us, the big and small of us
We search for happiness and all its features
All the things, contentment brings

When days are dark we need a guiding hand
From when we know we'll always understand

I've got my troubles, the same as you
But I've got my river to carry me through
I'm just a dreamer the same as you
But I've got my river to carry me through

The skies may roar the rain may pour
The wolf at the door may frown
But I can depend on my friend the river
Cause he never lets me down

I've got my troubles the same as you
I've got no bankful but still I'm thankful
But I've got my river to carry me through

Some rave about the swanee
Down by the cotton grove
Some have to bear a load so heavy
Out where the - slows

Folks travel to the -
One million everyday
That's where they look for new religion
As they wash their sins away

Then there's the channel so lovely to see
Like a jewel that shines in a crown
But the only one river that matters to me
Flows under london bridge through london town

I've got my troubles the same as you
I've got no bankful but still I'm thankful
But I've got my river to carry me through
