Big Old River

It's a big ol' river, got mud on the bottom,
 Got mud on the bottom, get mud on your shoe,
 It's a big ol' river so you better get to walkin'
 It's a big ol' river and a long way too
 It's a big ol' river
 It's a big ol' river and a long way too
 There's smoke on the land and
 Mirrors in the water
 There's smoke on the land,
 Fire in the street,
 There's smoke from the hand of a
 Uniform magician
 Turn his own crimes
 Into another man's pain
 There's plenty of food
 And there's plenty of money,
 There's plenty of hunger,
 There's plenty of greed
 And there's plenty o' reason
 To tell you that there isn't
 While there's plenty who die
 With nothin' to eat
 Yeah (chorus)
 There's plenty for war
 And there's plenty for killin'
 And there's plenty for takin'
 Another man's life
 And there's plenty o reasons, they'll
 Tell you that we got 'em
 While the prophets are countin'
 Far from the lie (?) well
 It was a great big world but
 Now it's getting smaller,
 Was a great big world but now we can see,
 It's a great big world and we got
 Sisters and brothers,
 Lovin' every country in prayers for peace
 It's a big ol' river, got mud on the bottom,
 Got mud on the bottom, get mud on your shoe,
 It's a big ol' river so you better get to walkin'
 It's a big ol' river and a long way to
