Run Like The River

One hopeful road

That my mamma showed to me

From the moment I first standed

I didn't know

Back there and then she released me free

From that patched up shackle down my pa was handed

She said Tyrone

Go be the King you're meant to be

Like a stone roll on your mission

Hurry now, son

'Cause there are songs need to be sung

And you're the one to reach the heart and it will listen

Mother said, "Run, Baby, run"

Go ahead, "Run, Baby, run"

Mother said, "Run, baby, run"

Run like the river

As wheels do turn

Is how I go you all sure should know

As flames do burn I am ignited

Towards the wind

Through squinted eyes I look ahead

'Cause in the end the road behind me long been ridin'

Mother said, "Run, Baby, run"

(Mother said, "Run, Baby, run")

Go ahead, "Run, Baby, run"

(Go ahead, "Run, Baby, run")

Mother said, "Run, baby, run"

(Mother said, "Run, baby, run")

Run like the river

Run Like the river

Mother said, "Run, Baby, run"

(Mother said, "Run, Baby, run")

Go ahead, "Run, Baby, run"

(Go ahead, "Run, Baby, run")

Mother said, "Run, baby, run"

(Mother said, "Run, baby, run")

Run like the river

Run like the river

Run like the river

Run like the river

Run, Baby, run

(Run, Baby, run)

Oh, run, Baby, run

(Run, Baby, run)

Run, Baby, run

(Run, Baby, run)

Run like the river

Mother said, "Run, Baby, run"

(Mother said, "Run, Baby, run")

Run, Baby, run; My Baby, run

Run, Baby, run

(Run, Baby, run)

Mother said, "Run, Baby, run"

(Mother said, "Run, Baby, run")

Run like the river

Run like the river

Run, Baby, run

(Run, Baby, run)

My Momma said, "Run, Baby, run"

(Run, Baby, run)

Hopeful road my Momma showed to me

Run, Baby, run

(Run, Baby, run)

Run like the river

Run like the river

Run like the river

Run like the river

The river
