Lyrics
You walk the gangplank as before
As they carry your luggage to the door
Don't ever pay me no never mind enjoy your trip, have a good time
As the River flows, As the River Flows
Don't ever pay me no never mine trying to feed a family, just getting by
As the River flows, As the River Flows
Your stocks went up one more time
As you celebrate into the night
Don't ever pay me no never mind just another heartache down the line
As the river flows, As the river flows
Don't ever pay me no never mind eat your caviar drink your wine
As the river flows, As the river flows
The Captain points toward the shore
At an Orphanage and then one more
Don't ever pay him no never mind just another orphan standing in line
As the river flows, As the river flows
Don't ever pay them no never mind the captain wipes a tear from his eye
As the river flows, As the river flows
Don't ever pay them no never mind just another heartache down the line
As the river flows, as the river flows
Don't ever pay them no never mind but in the eyes of those children are the eyes of God
As the river flows, As the river flows, as the river flows
