Sing - Nanci Griffith

Songs that rent the air

Fading in and out at night

While I was lying there

Voices soft and lonely

And later Rock and Roll

Flying across the Rio Grande

Straight into my soul

Trying to find a reason

Trying to find that rhyme

Rolling with the river

Trying to keep time

And in the end I wouldn’t change a thing

I’d sing

Music is the life in me

It’s the melody I breathe

It gives me strength in harder times

And reason to believe

Endless miles of highway

Every step hard earned

It seems it was all mapped out

All the twists and turns

Still trying to find a reason

Trying to find that rhyme

Still rolling with the river

Trying to keep time

And in the end I wouldn’t change a thing

I’d sing
