Songtext Rollin' on The Doobie Brothers

Rollin' on

Outside of town there is a river
and it calls to me;
like a song in the night.

A whole lotta people make their way to that river.
'Cause it keeps on rollin' on
like everything's alright, listen to me.

That old river just keeps rollin' on,
even when our love is just a song.
And like that river we just keep on rollin' along.

Everybody needs somethin' they can count on everyday.
Like a clock that keeps the time for ya,
it never drifts away.

You and me, you see, are different but the same.
And though we may not understand each other,
we got to try just the same, listen to me.

That old river just keeps rollin' on,
even when our love is just a song.
And like that river we just keep on rollin' along.

Now all these thoughts don't mean nothing
if we don't live to what we say.
I for one need love and direction,
to help me find my way.

Everybody sing...

That old river just keeps rollin' on,
even when our love is just a song.
And like that river we just keep on rollin' along.

That old river just keeps rollin' on,
even when our love is just a song.
And like that river we just keep on rollin' along.

C'mon people...

That old river just keeps rollin' on,
even when our love is just a song.
And like that river we just keep on rollin' along.

Repeat and fade
