I love my mother

I love my father

I love my sisters too

I bought this guitar

To pledge my love

To pledge my love to you

I am a rock

Bottom riser

And I owe it all to you

I saw a gold ring

At the bottom of the river

Glinting

At my foolish heart

Oh my foolish heart

Had to go diving

Diving diving

Into the murk

And from the bottom of the river

I looked up for the sun

Which had shattered in the water

And the pieces were raining down

Like gold rings

That passed through my hands

As I thrashed and grabbed

I started rising rising

I left my mother

I left my father

Left my sisters too

Left them standing on the banks

And they pulled me out

Of this mighty mighty river

I am a rock

Bottom riser

And I owe it all to you
