Run to the River Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Uh
Man be travelling on his way home
He ain't cheated but the thought play on his mind
Hear the devil whisper, "She's right on your way home"
Spend a night, oh, why is loving such a crime?
[Refrain 1]
Oh, oh
[Chorus]
Why oh why
This love, it died
Oh—na—na, run to the river, oh
Oh—na—na, run to the river (whoop)
Why oh why
This love, it died
Oh—na—na, run to the river, oh
Oh—na—na, run to the river (whoop)
[Verse 2]
Man be lonely in his own home
His own lover left him, he can't sleep at night (ayy)
Hear the devil whisper, "Stay with me and hang home (ayy)
Just one bottle of straight liquor, you'll be fine"
[Refrain 1]
Oh, oh
[Chorus]
Why oh why
This love, it died
Oh—na—na, run to the river, oh
Oh—na—na, run to the river (whoop)
Why oh why
This love, it died
Oh—na—na, run to the river, oh
Oh—na—na, run to the river (whoop)
[Verse 3]
Man be fleeing from his own home (ayy)
All possessions and belongings left behind (—ind)
Hear the devil whisper, "Turn around, head back home (ayy)
There ain't anything out there for you to find"
[Refrain 2]
Oh, oh
[Chorus]
Why oh why
This love, it died
Oh—na—na, run to the river, oh
Oh—na—na, run to the river (whoop)
Why oh why
This love, it died
Oh—na—na, run to the river, oh
Oh—na—na, run to the river (whoop)
[Bridge]
Whoop, uh-uh
Run it up, nothin' on this path, so make that move (eh, uh)
Run it up, hustle, you ain't got nothin' to lose (eh, uh)
Run it up, nothin' on this path, so make that move (eh, uh)
Run it up, hustle, you ain't got nothin' to lose
[Chorus (Extended)]
Why oh why
This love, it died
Oh—na—na, run to the river, oh
Oh—na—na, run to the river (whoop)
Why oh why
This love, it died
Oh—na—na, run to the river, oh
Oh—na—na, run to the river (whoop)
Why oh why
This love, it died
Oh—na—na, run to the river, oh
Oh—na—na, run to the river (whoop)
Why oh why
This love, it died
Oh—na—na, run to the river, oh
Oh—na—na, run to the river (whoop)
[Outro]
Run to fields, run to roads
Pain is real, it'll heal, river flows
Flip the stone, dirt clouds, leave a trail
Let em' know you know what you're worth, don't look back
Get it and run
