Holding Back The River

Stop your pretending 
Listen to what I've got to say 
How your head's went away 
Only here for a day 
And that grave I just made 
Is for me when I get paid 


Won't you wait a while 
Move to blue 
Sometimes people don't want to say 
Old time dancers don't die that way 
See that grave I've just made 
It's for me when I get paid 


Somebody's got to hold back the river 
Somebody like you 


Do you love and surrender 
Sometimes I feel like I can remember 
I think it's fair to mention 
About the days when I get paid 


Somebody's got to hold back the river 
Somebody like you 
Somebody's got to hold back the river 
Somebody like you 


I want a little loving 
I told you all to listen 
But you never liked what you heard 
I take what I am given 
This may sound absurd 
I share a double vision 
Starting the transition 


Hey where's Jimmy Jazz 
Steady on the scales 


I told you to listen 
I told you to listen 


Somebody's got hold back the river 
Somebody like you 
Somebody's got to hold back the river 
Somebody like you 


You know that somebody 
You know that somebody 
You know that somebody 
But it ain't you
