lyrics

I am a child of the river
In a little muddy cistern
My flowers grow

Like a turtle in the thick reeds
Bowing to knotweed
Where the great waters flow

So toss in a flat stone
And I’ll teach you how to set bones
But you must break a few

LET’S GO DOWN TO THE RIVER BY THE STREET
BRING A COW AND CUCUMBERS TO EAT
OH NO, THOSE RIVER KIDS
RIVER KIDS

Out in the wild
Acting like a child
Watching fish wander through

So come to the water
Like a lamb to the slaughter
I’ll steal you too

Go ahead and struggle
I’ll drown you in a puddle
You’ll break like bamboo

LET’S GO DOWN TO THE RIVER BY THE STREET
TAKE A BOW BEFORE YOU TAKE A SEAT
OH NO, THOSE RIVER KIDS
OH NO-O-O-O-HO-WA-OH

LET’S GO DOWN TO THE RIVER BY THE STREET
BRING A COW AND CUCUMBERS TO EAT
OH NO, THOSE RIVER KIDS
OH NO-O-O-O-HO-WA-OH

I am a child of the river
In a little muddy cistern
My flowers grow

I've seen a thing or two. Hell maybe nine or ten things more. I know what trouble sounds like and it's knocking at your door.
