I went down by the river just to free my soul
Granny always told me that it's good as gold
Take me to a place where there's oak tree shade
Always knew that it would be this way
Now I can fly
My wings take me miles
I don't cry, I just swallow my pride
And now time's never bringin' me down
'Cause I always know what'll come next
I went down by the river just to free my soul
Granny always told me that it's good as gold
Take me to a place where there's oak tree shade
Always knew that it would be this way
Now I can fly
My wings take me miles
I don't cry, I just swallow my pride
And now times never bringin' me down
'Cause I always know what'll come next
I'll always know what'll come next
Went to the top of the mountain where the angels soar
Devil kept talking couldn't take no more
Take me to a place where my best friend stays
Always knew that it would be this way
Now I can fly
My wings take me miles
I don't cry, I just swallow my pride
And now time's never bringing me down
'Cause I always know what'll come next
I'll always know what'll come next
Said I'll always know
You won't figure out until you're gone
Said I'll always know
You won't figure out until you're gone
I went down by the river just to free my soul
Granny always told me that it's good as gold
Take me to a place where there's oak tree shade
Always knew that it would be this way
Now I can fly
My wings take me miles
I don't cry, I just swallow my pride
And now times never bringin' me down
'Cause I always know what'll come next
I'll always know what'll come next
