Cannonball AdderleyRandy CrawfordRiver Lyrics
[CAROLINA]
River, if you ever find him driftin'
Flow him home to me
Wind, if you should pass him in your travel
Lift him back to me
Night, with all your thousand eyes to see with
Night, if you can't see
How can my eyes see?
Moon, stop makin' shadows
Shadows, stop your tauntin' me
(spoken)
John Henry? John Henry? Anybody seen that big man?
