I was born by the river So I know where the river run dry Oh I couldn't last forever Accused just for living But I know that my living was right Oh I, I couldn't last forever.
Look at me making movies Making living like I've never lived before And the people wanting out of the river Like a poor boy really should.
Now I can sit and stand it Like other people do (I can sit and stand it) What you do for me I'll do for you
Now I can sit and stand it Like other people do (I can sit, I can sit and stand it) What is blue for me Is it blue for you
There's a man who I know You know he's got a fist full of dirty dollars And I think they won't last forever Does he really know what people are saying Do his feeling sure what is saying Whiles the other's disappear he was alone.
Now I can sit and stand it Like other people do (I can sit and stand it) What you do for me I'll do for you
Now I can sit and stand it Like other people do (I can sit, I can sit and stand it) And what is blue for me Is it blue for you
I got back to the river Cause I know where the river run dry Oh, I couldn't last forever Take the night making movies Like a villain never ever seen the light of day Don't you know that I can't last forever
Now I can sit and stand it Like other people do (I can sit and stand it) What you do for me I'll do for you, yeah
Now I can sit and stand it Like other people do (I can sit, I can sit and stand it) And what is blue for me Is it blue for you
Now I can sit and stand it Like other people do What is blue for me Is kind of blue for you
