Lyrics
Hooker River David Gans Livin' on an island in the mighty Hooker River Seems a little faster than it did just yesterday We used to be afraid of falling in when we were children Times I've wished I'd jumped and let it carry me away Chorus: Sometimes I can't remember where I'm going My inspiration slips away Sometimes I'd like to be that river flowing Then I'd know I'm going to make it home some day Thunder on the ridgetop and the Hooker River coursin' Sky is hangin' low with clouds like smoke thrown up from hell Devil knows the reason for my trouble with the weather Lord knows where it's comin' from &endash; the rain that never fell Chorus Walk along the riverside and hear the water working Rage against the rapids rising higher every day Ain't no sense pretending I won't have to beat it somehow Tear my house down, build a raft, and ride it come what may Chorus
