The River of Time is a wild bucking mule
Yeah the River of Time is a wild bucking mule
She’s kicking up the mud but I ain’t no fool
I’m jumping on her back gonna stay real cool
History’s a soup and it’s boiling in the pot
Yeah History’s a soup and it’s boiling in the pot
I’m diving for the gold while the iron’s getting hot
Gonna grab a big ladle give it all I’ve got
I’m a catfish hunter in a flood of years
Greasing up the wheels shifting all the gears
Got a honey-glazed dream and a pocket full of rye
Gonna catch that happiness before the well runs dry
Solo
The wind’s got a whistle and the road’s got a bend
Yeah the wind’s got a whistle and the road’s got a bend
I’m trading my shadow for a long-lost friend
Gonna build me a kingdom where the party never ends
I’m a catfish hunter in a flood of years
Greasing up the wheels shifting all the gears
Got a honey-glazed dream and a pocket full of rye
Gonna catch that happiness before the well runs dry
So roll up your denim tuck your worries in your boot
The future’s a tree with a deep golden root
Don’t just stand on the bank don’t you be so shy
The water’s feeling fine and the limit is the sky!
Oh the limit is the sky!
Let's fly boys fly!
Solo
I’m a catfish hunter in a flood of years
Greasing up the wheels shifting all the gears
Got a honey-glazed dream and a pocket full of rye
Gonna catch that happiness before the well runs dry
Shovel in the coal let the whistle scream
We’re the kings of the mud living out the dream!
Yeah we’re living out the dream!
Just a-rolling and a-rolling and a-rolling
(YEE-HAW!)
