lee mellor – st. lawrence river كلمات اغاني

[verse 1: lee mellor]

my daddy told me there’s something i oughta
see when i was just twelve years old
he took me down to the brown murky water
tackle box jangling, entangled fishing poles
he said, “see the salmon jumping up creek?
the strong ones move on, the lake takes the weak

[chorus]
to that old st. lawrence river
shining like a necklace
sunlight gold and silver
down a collarbone of hill
son you’ve got to do your best cos
life is here to test us
when hope thins to a sliver
you’ve got to dam it with your will.”

[verse 2: lee mellor]

and the next day he went off to fight in the desert
came back a shape draped beneath a canadian flag
then the money got bad so this lad he got desperate
walked into the bank with a mask and a duffel bag
that off-duty cop sure came out of the blue
now i’ve got me a room with a five year view

[chorus]
of that old st. lawrence river
shining like a necklace
sunlight gold and silver
down a collarbone of hill
wrote my dreams out on a checklist
i’m done with being reckless
i’ve only got a little time
and a lot left to fulfill

[bridge]

“fight the current,” dad, was the wrong thing to say
life is giving up, and letting it carry you away

[verse 3: lee mellor]

and now i’m out of prison i work in the scr-pyard
all that i want is my own set of wheels
and ain’t it ironic that i’ve got to work so hard
beneath the krangs of dreams and automobiles
but when that cheque comes in, in seven more days
i’m taking my car all of the way

[chorus]
down that old st. lawrence river
shining like a necklace
sunlight gold and silver
down a collarbone of hill
spent too long down southwest, yes
sir i’m a getting restless
to see the great atlantic
where all that water spills
down that old st. lawrence river

- lee mellor
