about

Life twists and turns, but no matter what it brings...you've got to just keep flowing down the river.

lyrics

Sometimes we’re on a path
Other times we run astray
Sometimes we use our paddle
Or let the vessel lead the way
Sometimes we hit a stone
With luck we flip right over
‘Cause boats were meant to float
Just turn it right back over

Sometimes we take a path unseen
To find, recharge, or hide
Sometimes we throw an anchor
To go against the tide
It’s hard to throw an anchor
That’s not the way it goes
You wanna be a rock, you say?
We were made to rock and roll

Keep flowing down the river
No matter what the waves
Put your will to the water
And get on through...get on through the day

Some have come prepared
With lots of food and tools
Others come with nothin’
And nothin’ left to lose
Some are strong with friends
Supported, bound like glue
Some of us are lonesome
Desperate, worn, and blue

The river holds the unknown
Sometimes it’s from the sky
Unexpected everywhere
From even deep inside
It’ll twist and change and rearrange
Based on what we face
We could fall off the brace
Or choose to keep the faith

Keep flowing down the river
No matter what the waves
Put your will to the water
And get on through...get on through the day

You’ll get cold, tired, toiled
Weakened, lost, and scared
But you’re meant to press on through
Only fate knows how and where
So, choose to see the beauty
And adventure it provides
Don’t you want to see how long it goes?
The element of surprise?

Just let your troubles wash away
Behind your rowing oar
And let the river lead the way
The pain will be no more

Keep flowing down the river
No matter what the waves
Put your will to the water
And get on through...get on through the day...
Get on through the day
