So long boy You can take my place I got my papers I got my pay So pack my bags And I'll be on my way To Yellow River
Put my gun down The war is won Fill my glass And the time has come I'm goin' back To the place that I love
To Yellow River
Yellow River Yellow River is in my mind And in my eyes Yellow River Yellow River is in my blood It's the place I love
Got no time for explanations Got no time to lose Tomorrow night you'll find me sleepin' Underneath the moon At Yellow River Canon fire lingers in my mind I'm so glad I'm still alive And I've been gone For such a long time From Yellow River
I remember how the nights were cool I can still see the water move And I remember the girl that I knew From Yellow River Yellow River Yellow River is in my mind And in my eyes Yellow River Yellow River is in my blood It's the place I love
Got no time for explanations Got no time to lose Tomorrow night you'll find me sleepin' Underneath the moon At Yellow River Yellow River is in my mind And in my eyes Yellow River Yellow River is in my blood It's the place I love
