I went down to the river and I wrote down what I saw
Life was pure and simple there
and I, with older eyes, I took a rowboat for a ride
and I was calling to myself from the shore:
"hey, don't come 'round anymore"
I got bored with the currents
and I got bored with the dreams
I got bored with being healthy
I get bored with everything
and I only went ashore
because it costs too much to stay on the stream
My eyes are older now, but the river never changed,
and I'm alive for now, I've got pennies that I've saved
in case I pass before you find me,
I will write this on the bank -
