Del Rio's Song Song Lyrics
Del Rio's Song by Blue System Ive lived upon
The edge of chance
For twenty years or more
And this is what my friends all mean
By del rios song.......oh, del rio
Del rios song..........oh, del rio
Del rios song..........oh, del rio
Del rios song..........oh, del rio
When time gets slow, and rivers freeze
I think youd know enough
To call in touch that outer frame
The inner gain, a sullen gulch
Which opens up on the way to blindmans bluff
A suburb now of river roads
Where quandry and sublime improve
The sight whose imagery
Is sometimes that of fear
Ive lived upon
The edge of chance
For twenty years or more
And this is what my friends all mean
By del rios song.......oh, del rio
Del rios song..........oh, del rio
Del rios song..........oh, del rio
Del rios song..........oh, del rio
When time gets slow, and rivers freeze
I think youd know enough
To shut the gates of walled town walls
And putting up some good rum punch
Forget the way to blindmans bluff
So packed with eyes
That glow like coals
And pointing towards the north
Oh my boat left new orleans in 1829!
Hey! hey!hey! hey!
My destination is a secret
And the doctrine is soft
And just between the verse and me
Its a place where you can see
Lost, last and luminous
Scored to sky yet never found
Relics of jewels
And ant-track tools
A true ghost dance
Rehearsal ground
Ive lived upon
The edge of chance
For twenty years or more
And this is what my friends all mean
Ive lived upon
The edge of chance
For twenty years or more
And this is what my friends all mean
By del rios song.......oh, del rio
Del rios song..........oh, del rio
Del rios song..........oh, del rio
Del rios song..........oh, del rio
