The River Knows Your Name By John Hiatt why Let the river wash you down Beneath the surface with a rushing sound Like a freight train passing through a town Let the river wash you down Let the river take away All the words what you and I could never say In the silence Darling let us pray Let the river take it all away Oh the river knows your name From the Brazos to the Wabash To the Seine No two journeys are ever quite the same But the river knows your name, Oh the river knows your name (guitaretab.com)
