Blue river blues I'd rather be outside Here I am inside Watching it rain Blue river blues I'd rather be somewhere Here I am nowhere Watching it rain One, two, three, four! Some people like that downhill stuff They like it fast and breezy Some people walk on the other side They like it slow and easy Some people run on a mountain trail Some like it wild and rough Some like to fly and some like to sail And some like the downhill stuff There's work in what we practice Work in the things we say Sometimes we work just to try to make a living Or we're workin' just to make it pay Sometimes we're tryin' to work our will But that won't work anyway I only know that I'm workin' still Just to get another chance to play Some people like that downhill stuff They like it fast and breezy Some people walk on the other side They like it slow and easy Some people run on a mountain trail Some like it wild and rough Some like to fly and some like to sail And some like the downhill stuff Keep movin' in a forward direction Like a river rollin' down to the sea If you wanna make a different selection Honey, let yourself go with gravity Everybody's lookin' for heaven Everybody's lookin' for home Everybody's lookin' for higher and higher But nobody wants to be lookin' alone Everybody's tryin' to get down to it Everybody's tryin' to sing Whatever it is we're all gonna do it But whatever we do we gotta do our own thing Some people like that downhill stuff They like it fast and breezy Some people walk on the other side They like it slow and easy Some people run on a mountain trail Some like it wild and rough Some like to fly and some like to sail Some like the downhill stuff I like the downhill stuff Let me slide down that downhill stuff Oh, honey give me some downhill stuff
