lyrics

I used to go to a school in a small town
in northern New Hampshire
it wasn't a home but I loved who I met there

and the Pemigewasset was the center of life
as it flowed next to main street
but I had to leave it
and when I returned I had found that the friends I made had grown distant
and the mighty Pemi River had changed its colors six times since I'd seen it

I once met a girl who would soon fly for Scotland
and I held her up while she kept me grounded
and so this went on for a couple of years and now it is over
and I don't even know her
she brought me out to that god forsaken land just to tell me that she was leaving me
and In time she'll come to resemble those friends I had made in that small town
in northern New Hampshire

and I'll be a sinewy bone if you be red rover
and I'll be a sinewy bone if you be red rover
and I'll be a sinewy bone if you be red rover
and let me come over
