    LYRICS
    The day the river freezes
    Is the day it won't seem fair
    'Cause they'll come to get the River Lady
    And I don't think they'll care
    I know they'll scrape her paint off
    In their same old foolish ways
    Now the people see the river
    But the old ship's gone away
    Water turns cold and gets to freezin'
    Before you even know it
    The old girl's easin'
    Away from her birth
    Round by the point and out of our view
    Off in the mist her engine's poundin'
    Back on the banks that old horn's soundin'
    A little goodbye
    A little I'll do what I must do
    A little goodbye
    A little I'll do what I must do
    I know I will remember
    When I cannot hear that horn
    That would roll up by the mountains
    As she took us through the storm
    I know they've got to take her
    But I can't say I approve
    'Cause she's won so many battles
    That I hate to see her lose
    Water turns cold and gets to freezin'
    Before you even know it
    The old girl's easin'
    Away from her birth
    Round by the point and out of our view
    Off in the mist her engine's poundin'
    Back on the banks that old horn's soundin'
    A little goodbye
    A little I'll do what I must do
    A little goodbye
    A little I'll do what I must do
    Water turns cold and gets to freezin'
    Before you even know it the old girl's easin'
    Away from her birth
    'Round by the point and out of our view
    Off in the mist her engine's poundin'
    Back on the banks that old horn's soundin'
    A little goodbye
    A little I'll do what I must do
    A little goodbye
    A little I'll do what I must do
    Water turns cold and gets to freezin'
    Before you even know it the old girl's easin'
    Away from her birth
    'Round by the point and out of our view
    Off in the mist her engine's poundin'
    Back on the banks that old horn's soundin'
    A little goodbye
    A little I'll do what I must do
    A little goodbye
    A little I'll do what I must do
    Water turns cold and gets to freezin'
    Before you even know it the old girl's easin'
    Away from her berth
    'Round by the point and out of our view

    He has always been an amazing person and talent. I love his voice. My favorite is The Last Farwell but I love all his songs ❤

    About 15 years ago In saw Roger in concert. I was a huge fan since I was young...I was 27 when I saw him perform and I think I was the youngest person at his concert...Everyone else seemed to be in their 40's and up...

    First song that drew me to Roger. That was in 1978 as a teen. Still my favorite. What a talent.

  • @re1978

    One of my first favorite songs. I remember being younger than 5 years old and hearing my parents play it on the stereo or radio back around 1977

    I was at THIS concert in Nov 1976! Very first concert that I had even been to. A few years ago, HMV has the whole concert on DVD for sale. I managed to buy their LAST copy. I spoke to the warehouse where they were made, and I got the very final one. I do treasure it to this day.

    This song makes me think of my wife Ella who died a few years back.
    This is far and away the best thing Roger has on youtube.

    Apart from being a great song, the quality of the mix (of the original record) is excellent, I've added that to my list of songs I play to test potential new gear.

    It doesn't sound bad - but it iis not worthy to such a big musician like he is

  • @arnonym3327
    @arnonym3327 6 лет назад

    Sorry - the guitar is too much muted und cannot rally heear it and so it doesn't really connect to him and he could wear a neclace instead - wouldnÄ't make a big difference also the music is way too fast like: we have to kkep out time plan - sorry from Germany
