Rice Drewry: Music

I'll Fly Away

(Rice Drewry)
Meet me on the other side of midnight
We can stay out til the break of dawn
Catch the early greyhound bound for nowhere
The time has come for me to move along

CHORUS
Ohoh, the river rolls from the mountain to the sea
Hey Hey I’ll fly away, soaring higher to be free

Never been the kind for long romances
Never be the one to settle down
Now that I have had a taste of freedom
It keeps me movin’ on from town to town

CHORUS

It doesn’t mean that I don’t love you
It doesn’t mean that I don’t care
You deserve more than a rambler
You need someone to be there

If I were a tree I’d be a willow
The wind may blow but it’s not breakin’ me
You see the mighty oak tree lying sideways
It couldn’t bend with roots that run so deep

CHORUS
