Working in the city every day
Gotta make a living any way
Never get the time to turn around
Gotta get my feet back on the ground
Living in the city don't bring me no joy
'Cos deep down inside I'm still just a country boy

Since I was a boy I'd played it cool

1st verse
Gonna take a trip down the Mississippi line
Way down yonder, Georgia's on my mind
Gonna take a ride, gonna spend my money too
Baby, that's what I'm gonna do
There's a lot of places I ain't never have been
There's a lot of faces I ain't never have seen

1st verse
My childhood wasn't what you might call a success
I was born in northern England in a time of strife and stress
The war was over and somebody said we'd won
But I was too young to know all the damage that was done
Now looking back, there are things that I recall
I was frightened of the dark when I was small
They said it's over now at last

1st verse
If only you were not so far away
I would come to you, I surely would
If only I could find the words to say
I could speak my mind, and you would know

Chorus
If only, if only

Fifteen hundred miles is a long, long way
And I wish that I could be with you especially today
Standing right beside me is a man with a gun
And he's waiting for the chance to shoot me down if I should run
'Cos I'm on the inside looking out
And don't you know there's nothing I can do

Chorus

Through the plains and valleys
Across the great divide
White man brought his thunder
From the other side

Burning smoke and wing of steel
Breathing fire from flaming wheels
Reaching out for a new frontier

I've been all around this great big world
To Paris and to Rome
And I've never found a place that I
Could really call my own
But there's one place where I know
The sun is shining endlessly
And it's calling me across the sea
So I must get back to San Bernadino

Evening shadows fill the night
Glowing starlight shining bright
I will be here till morning light comes round again
Nothing can harm you if you trust in me, my friend
Rest your head on my pillow
Until the dawn, until the dawn

Soon the night will pass away

So long boy you can take my place, got my papers I've got my pay
So pack my bags and I'll be on my way to yellow river

Put my guns down the war is won
Fill my glass high the time has come
I'm going back to the place that I love 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

So long boy you can take my place
got my papers I've got my pay
So pack my bags and I'll be
on my way to yellow river

Put my guns down the war is won
Fill my glass high the time has come
I'm going back to the place that I love yellow river
