South Canadian River Song Michael Martin Murphey

Drink life one drop at a time, soul
Flow with the steam in your soul, soul
Pour your soul into the river of life, life
Rush to the ocean of God, God

There is a song I sing in a dream
There is a flow I can feel in a stream
Up to my neck in the flood from the snow
Over my head is beyond what I know

Take me beyond the south
Show me the way to the lighthouse
South Canadian motion
Downstream there is an ocean

There is a saint in every snake
There is a lady in every lake
There can be hell in a waterfall
I believe there's heaven after all

If you take me, save me
What kind of stone would you make
South Canadian
A free-flowing stream to a tidal wave

Drink life one drop at a time, time
Rush to the ocean of God, God
