People Going Nowhere Lyrics by The River Men (IT)

Terrace Thrills

0

People going nowhere
Up over our heads
If only they could stop
And remember they are there
Down on by the river
We see the water flow
And everything will float away
I just want someone else to stay
We sat on a rug
And smoked life away
Months passing by
Without a break
Legs catching up
Scared to be late
But we don’t regret
A single day
So where are you going
You hurrysome people
I’m scared you’ll be leaving
Before I can meet you
And what are you chasing
You lonely bodies
I doubt you’ll be earning
Whatever you’re running for
[Guitar solo]
People going nowhere (ah)
People going nowhere (ah)
Nowhere (ah)
Nowhere (ah)
[Guitar solo]
With beers in our hands
And rolled cigarettes
Flashing our lights of ideas
And a warning comes
That time will pass on
And the leaves on the ground shall fall
So climb up ahead, win the race, write a song
Sing it loud for the people to hear
And let them cry out when they find out that life
Has gone by and they’ve wasted their years
On we go to nowhere
While the coldest breeze spreads
If only we could watch the fishes
Jumping right in front of us
Down on by the river
We feel the warmth fading away
As the sun dawns shutting down
Another grey and shady day
