Again today I saw John's bike in the river When's somebody gonna drag that thing out The rims were warped and the vinyl seat was tattered Only we know what that was all about
Oh, the river Oh, river run Oh, the river Lying like a serpent in the sun
River towns are left now for the wealthy Another mansion's rising on the bluff Floor to ceiling windows for the luxury Of gazing at the dried and cracking mud
It's funny how familiar gets forgotten It's like John's bike isn't really even there Buried to it's axles in the culvert Nearly as invisible as air
And I keep thinking you'll appear like magic Like blacktop heat waves rising from the street The days and months and years have all gone misty Water disappearing, bones from meat
