Draw Me A River




DRAW ME A RIVER
A Song by Jerry Lee Miller

Open up your box of crayons
my children.
Draw me a river clapping her hands.
Draw her dancing through the bottom lands.
My children,
Draw me a river clapping her hands.

Please don't color mountains crying
tears that flow downstream.
Please don't color fish a dying.
I want to wake up from my bad sad dream.

Please don't color dumpers dumping
Stuff that's killing off our friends.
Please don't color  massive pumping.
I just want my sad bad dream to end.

Please don't color pretty choirs
Singing it's not so bad.
Please don't color fancy liars
Saying we should all be glad.

Open up your box of crayons
my children.
Draw me a river clapping her hands.
Draw her dancing through the bottom lands.
My children,
Draw me a river clapping her hands.
