Back To The River Lyrics - Pretty Reckless

There's blue skies all around me 

And the world looks just the same 

It's hard to be criminal 

when you all know my name 

Sometimes I wonder 

Sometimes I wanna be free 

Well, you can be king of me 

And I'll be the queen 

No one listens to me 

The words I have to say 

There ain't no doubt about it 

I'm just trying to get away 

I'm going back to the river 

Where no one will find me 

We're going back to the river 

Back to the sea 

When I was just a baby 

My mama taught me 

"Girl, you best believe in Jesus 

If you'll make it in the world" 

I'm going back to the river 

Where no one knows my name 

I'm going back to the river 

Back to the Seine 

Here we go 

There's blue skies all around me 

And the world looks just the same 

It's hard to be criminal 

When they all know your name 

Sometimes I wonder 

Sometimes I wanna be free 

Well, you can be king of me 

And I'll be the queen
