Sunset on the river
Down in old, Watertown
Hear the train whistle blowin'
As the leaves kiss the ground
Oh, I'm right there now
I was just a young boy
Going nowhere soon
With a dream and a beat-up six-string
Just howling at the moon
Oh, I'm right there now
Rise over the darkness
Sail above the clouds
Faith keep me from falling
And I swear I won't look down
Oh, I'm right there now
At seventeen, the town was changing
Factories were shutting down
But we were rock and roll stars
To all the watered-down bars
And teenage brides in wedding gowns
Oh, I'm right there now
Rise over the darkness
Sail above the clouds
Faith keep me from falling
And I swear I won't look down
Oh, I'm right there now
And way down the wind
As I walk the road again
Only time is lost
I can still remember
Driving home in the driving rain
Past highway signs and Rock Island lines
California dreamin'
Oh, I'm right there now
Rise over the darkness
Sail above the clouds
Faith keep me from falling
And I swear I won't look down
Oh, I'm right there now
