When I was young my daddy'd get his gun
And we'd camp out on the Colorado River
Hot dog bun, desert sun
Born to run on the Colorado River
I remember still how I'd feel
When the air got still on the Colorado River
I remember still when it was time to kill
And the blood would spill on the Colorado River
Winding lakes, stunning 'scapes
Sun and snakes on the Colorado River
Jet ski views, princess plume
Datura blooms on the Colorado River
Indian ruins, dull harpoons
Watery tombs on the Colorado River
Dry it up, leave your tears in a truck
Let your head get stuck on the Colorado River
What they gonna find? What they gonna find?
What they gonna find on the Colorado River?
What they gonna find? What they gonna find?
What they gonna find on the Colorado River?
Ten to one, it's the senator's son
He had a good run on the Colorado River
Hold my nose, fingers and toes
Burning our clothes on the Colorado River
I can still remember how it felt
When the air got still on the Colorado River
I can still remember how it felt
When it really got real on the Colorado River
What they gonna find? What they gonna find?
What they gonna find on the Colorado River?
What they gonna find? What they gonna find?
When their necks unwind on the Colorado River?
Oh no, the Colorado River
Water's getting lower and the beach is getting bigger
Oh no, the Colorado River
Water's getting lower and the beach is getting bigger
Oh no, the Colorado River
Oh no, the Colorado River
