  • The Riverbank

  • 演唱:Paul Simon

  • Frightened by the tone of a 'phone in the dead of night

  • Then staring into darkness and praying 'til the morning light

  • The price already paid a son gone to the grave

  • Now the sorrowful parade to the riverbank

  • Must be half the county come down to the riverbank

  • High school is closed same for the local police

  • Shall we tearfully embrace shall we sing amazing grace
  • Will the shallow waters bring us peace

  • Army dude only son nowhere to run no-one to turn to
  • He turns to the gun
  • It's a cross it's a stone it's a fragment of bone
  • It's a long walk home a long walk home

  • Gonna be a long walk home from the riverbank

  • Is there any reason why the black pine should not weep

  • Is there a woman or a man
  • Who wouldn't understand why he could not sleep

  • And the nightmares when they came like poison to the brain
  • Reminded him again life is cheap

  • Army dude only son nowhere to run no-one to turn to
  • He turns to the gun
  • It's a cross it's a stone it's a fragment of bone
  • It's a long walk home a long walk home

  • Gonna be a long walk home from the riverbank

  • Army dude's mama at the edge of the river

  • Limp as a rag american flag in her arms

  • Then a triangle of light kissed the red and blue and white
  • Along the riverbank past the dealerships and farms

  • Along the riverbank past the dealerships and farms
