Bathe
Like a bird
Through prison bars
I'm escaping
And behind me on the long highway
Lies all that I've forsaken
Cool river, flow
I am bound for where ever you go
Chorus: I'm gonna bathe in the river
Gonna hold my head up in the river
Not gonna worry any more
Gonna reach that golden shore
I don't feel afraid
For now I see
That if I believe
I will be free
Wide river, flow
I'm gonna learn whatever you know
(Chorus)
Mighty river, hear that rushin' sound
Cool clear water, lay my burden down
(Chorus)
