Sylvia Tyson's RIVER ROAD
Here I go once again with my suitcase in my hand
I'm running away down River Road
And I swear, once again, that I'm never coming home
I'm chasing my dreams down River Road
Mama said, "Listen child, you're too old too run wild
You're too big to go fishing with the boys these days
So I grabbed my clothes and ran
Stole five dollars from the sugar can
Just a twelve-year-old jail-breaker running away.
CHO
Well I married a pretty good man and he tries to understand
But he knows I've got leaving on my mind these days
When I get that urge to run I'm just like a kid again
A thirty-year-old jail-breaker running away.
And here I go once again with my suitcase in my hand
I'm running away down River Road
And I swear once again that I'm never coming home
In my dreams I still run down River Road.

Papere's Mill
The wheels turns round
The corn is ground
There'll be bread on the table in the morning
And the love may end
The hearts will mend
As sure as the wheel keeps turning
On the river in the middle of my home town
Grandfathers mill turning dog day long
Whenever my world came tumblin down
I'd run to Papere and sing this song.
(Chorus)
The wheels turns round
The corn is ground
They'll be bread on the table in the morning
I grew up and chased my rainbows
Making mistakes like we all do
Listened to some who think they knew better
Thinking it was better because it was new
(Chorus) The wheels turns round
The corn is ground
They'll be bread on the table in the morning
(Repeat Chorus) The wheels turns round
The corn is ground
They'll be bread on the table in the morning
I learned in time to trust myself
to be a good friend when the friends need me
Because what goes round always comes around
like the Papere's old melody
(Chorus)
The wheels turns round
The corn is ground
They'll be bread on the table in the morning
