Don Williams – Standing Knee Deep In A River (Dying Of Thirst) lyrics
Friends I could count on
I could count on one hand
With a left over finger or two
I took them for granted
Let them all slip away
Now where they are I wish I knew
They roll by just like water
And I guess we never learn
Go through life parched and empty
Standing knee deep in a river
And dying of thirst
Sometimes I remember
The good people I've known
Some I've forgotten I suppose
One or two still linger
Oh, I wonder now
Why I ever let them go
They roll by just like water
And I guess we never learn
Go through life parched and empty
Standing knee deep in a river
And dying of thirst
So the side walk is crowded
The city goes by
I just rushed through another day
And a world full of strangers
Turn their eyes to me
But I just look the other way
They roll by just like water
And I guess we never learn
Go through life parched and empty
Standing knee deep in a river
And dying of thirst
Go through life parched and empty
Standing knee deep in a river
Dying of thirst...
I could count on one hand
With a left over finger or two
I took them for granted
Let them all slip away
Now where they are I wish I knew
They roll by just like water
And I guess we never learn
Go through life parched and empty
Standing knee deep in a river
And dying of thirst
Sometimes I remember
The good people I've known
Some I've forgotten I suppose
One or two still linger
Oh, I wonder now
Why I ever let them go
They roll by just like water
And I guess we never learn
Go through life parched and empty
Standing knee deep in a river
And dying of thirst
So the side walk is crowded
The city goes by
I just rushed through another day
And a world full of strangers
Turn their eyes to me
But I just look the other way
They roll by just like water
And I guess we never learn
Go through life parched and empty
Standing knee deep in a river
And dying of thirst
Go through life parched and empty
Standing knee deep in a river
Dying of thirst...
