Flowing

Underneath where nobody finds me All the brothers are gone I can see the passing refugees Flowing They are flowing Nobody saw it get into my head No, they can't find me Calling loud in the dark ravine Flowing Oh, I'm flowing Flowing back along the village river bed As the water flows underneath my head All the brothers have gone back overseas Girlies pass me by I had the meanest heart you've ever seen Flowing Oh I'm flowing If I could crawl out of this yawning earth Go find Suzy-Boo We'd smoke gold in the dreamland too Flowing We are flowing Flowing by my river to the sea By my mean old spirit in the tree I turned my face to the sound above No, they can't see me Old bones are just food for the trees Flowing Oh, I'm flowing There was lies and fires in the hills Down the living streets Their smoke blows back my memories Flowing Oh, I'm flowing Flowing down the river to the sea Flowing mean old bones in the stream If these old bones could ever sail a while For an extra mile They'd flow just like the river Nile Flowing They are flowing
