Greg Brown Sailing Down My Golden River Lyrics

SAILING DOWN MY GOLDEN RIVER;
SUN AND WATER ALL MY OWN
YET I WAS NEVER ALONE;

SUN AND WATER, OLD LIFE GIVERS,
I’LL HAVE THEM WHER’ER I ROAM
AND I WAS NOT FAR FROM HOME

SUNLIGHT GLANCING ON THE WATER
LIFE AND DEATH ARE ALL MY OWN
AND I WAS NEVER SLONE

LIFE TO RAISE MY SONS AND DAUGHTERS GOLDEN SPARKLES IN THE FOAM
AND I WAS NOT FAR FROM HOME

SAILING DOWN THIS WINDING HIGHWAY
TRAVELERS FROM HEAR AND FAR
YET I WAS NEVER ALONE

EXPLORING ALL THE LITTLE BY-WAYS
SIGHTING ALL THE DISTANT STARS
AND I WAS NOT FAR FROM HOME
