Born and set for the river
With an oath to carry our old
We will follow their sound and never be heard
And always steer clear of the road
What will we do with the bodies? [3x]
We'll be rolling down the river
Rolling down the river
Soil and clay in dredges
And we'll never find the ring
Sombre and blind we lowered the vice
But what can we see anyway?
What will we do with the bodies? [3x]
We'll be rolling down the river
Rolling down the river
To the sea unsaid we departed
That oath now carries us on
We will fall into sounds and inlets abounds
Where a sorrow resides in each cove
Cracked ice and leaves, fallen
Boom, we hit a stone, we're river bound
Light fires to the ties
We've left for home, all that is gone
Shining light, horizon
Deliver us alive and whole
Blinding light, harvest songs
We'll miss you all, we'll miss you
We're soil and clay under bridges
For we've never found the ring
