as if it don�t know about the a-pproaching night
and all of this is just alright to me
cuz im-a settin by the river, feeling bout as chill as i could be
the moon comes up slow and pretty overhead
while father sun climbs into his bed
but i�d rather be a s star instead, that just me
cuz im-a settin by the river, thinking how stars is free
i see the moon up through the pines,
musta seen in there bout a thousand time
but i think it looks just as fine to me
cuz im-a settin by the river lookin at the moon through a tree
the silent night is full of sound
lotsa freaky noises coming from all around
the bugs and the critters on the ground they just sanging to me
cuz we chillin by the river, me and the bugs in the creek
i been lyin here since the afternoon
havin a nice conversation w/ the moon
i hope the sun don�t rise too soon on me
cuz im-a settin by the river, i believe im in a dream
