Mark McKinney The River Song lyrics

This heat is about to get to me,
It’s been fifty six days over a hundred degrees,
And it’s kinda’ got into my head,
My attitude is barely a little on the edge!
That girl… get out of here,
I’m talking about a river and a cooler, a beer,
And I don’t think we need nothing else,
Just cheap… good looking South!

Chorus:
I’m going off to the South stay on a cool river,
I’m gonna keep a drink in my hand
And I can’t remember what it was that
I couldn’t get off my mind.
Well, here we are, welcome to the good time!

Last one here is got a bar…
So grab me another one I’m ready again,
Girl, that bikini, sure looks nice,
I really like the way it brings out your eyes!
Come over here, and give me a kiss,
The laughter …don’t get no better than this,
Sorry for being stressed the last few days,

Thank God this water takes it away!

Chorus:
I’m going off to the South stay on a cool river,
I’m gonna keep a drink in my hand
And I can’t remember what it was that
I couldn’t get off my mind.
I’m gonna go with the flow wherever it takes me,
I gotta drift away now and again,
I gotta get free,
Like the clouds in the sky,
With a pretty girl I don’t mind!
Well, here we are, welcome to the good time!

I ain’t never gonna leave,
Don’t sit right here, in the shade of the …trees!
Click it out loud I love that song,
I got the whole damn river singing along,
And I wonder ... could we go,
All the way to the Gulf of Mexico!
