Lyrics

Red River Delta

From 'Songwriter's Collection: Volume 1'

 

By the red river tonight,
lights of a city shine on
Busy streets, they don’t sleep
A million voices roll into one

But drive on out of that big city
Where Mother Nature’s painting the day
Northern mountain calling my name
Her rivers lead into the bay

Red river delta, red river delta
Leading me home

High up in the mountain breeze,
morning bird sings a refrain
Staring down at the banks of the stream
The meaning so simple and plain

Walking on the wings of the sun,
strolling by the banks of a stream
I’m whistling a tune, I’m waiting on the moon
I’m easy like a baby in a dream

Red river delta, red river delta
Leading me home

You’re just leading me home
(Repeat)
