Pete Seeger — Sailing Down This Golden River

Sailing down my golden river Sun and water all my own Yet I was never alone Sun and water, old life givers I'll have them where e'er I roam And I was not far from home Sunlight glancing on the water Life and death are all my own Yet I was never alone Life to raise my sons and daughters Golden sparkles in the foam And I was not far from home Sailing down this winding highway Travelers from near and far Yet I was never alone Exploring all the little by-ways Sighting all the distant stars And I was not far from home
