[Verse 1]
Rain on the river i'm soaking wet
Waiting on friend who ain't come yet
And he might not get here for three or four days
Got to make a little bit go a long way
I've got a blond headed woman who likes to come around
Cute little hippy girl lives in town
Brings a bag a records and she plays 'em 'til dawn
Give me little loving then she got to go home
[Chorus]
When times are hard
When you start feeling low
Let yourself go
When the river's rising and the world feels cold
Let yourself go
Let yourself go
[Verse 2]
I got a 442 sitting in the sun
Well it's been ten years since she used to run
Man she was a beauty in '69
But there ain't no more coming down the line
[Chorus]
