Listen to my words 'cause I speak of rivers Some may be shallow and some may be deeper and deeper and deeper my brother man Since we pan and scans the land for what he can Hoping that it might strike gold Wading in the water in search of the soul To find what you seek The valleys and the peaks Open up your ears to the grooves and beats and be complete Now the water's deep You see dancing is rejoicing Now people make some noise and Dive into the water let it splash across your face Don't you stop the party and don't you lose the faith Keep on going on Moving on son Converge upon your urge and be submerged in the funk We all come to the river 'cause the water brings growth Let the Lord provide it Baby can you stroke? The style and the sound of reunion Good food good jams is our communion Down at the river the soul is wet Take a dip and revive yourself Revival! Revival! Revival! Revival Revival! Revival!
