Dry Land
When I was a boy
we used to go down to the river
strip down and jump in fast
jump out on the bank and shake and shiver
It's hard to understand
when to float with the current
when to stay on dry land
The current's fast
and it'll take you down in a hurry
no, you won't last
boy, you'll make your mamma worry
if you don't understand
when to float with the current
when to stay on dry land
There's so much you've never seen
and so much to do
that river's gonna call your name
yeah the river's got a one-way ticket for you
It's icy cold
When the snowmelt flows in the springtime
Feet grow numb
You can freeze to death in no time
If you don't understand
When to float with the current
When to stay on dry land
Well, the rains will come
they take the path of least resistance
cut through the mountainside
dig themselves a grave with their persistence
but you must understand
when to float with the current
when to stay on dry land
There's so much you've never seen
and so much to do
that river's gonna call your name
yeah the river's got a one-way ticket for me and you
