He don't speak too much
not sure if he can
a soulful bearded guy
that drives a van
But he can sure swing
when he plays that axe
Down this way he goes by
"That’s the Riverside Man"

Not the Mississippi Delta
but it's a river of note
It shapes the cords
In his head in his pickup van
maybe something love lorn
or a simple blues song
tune into Radio Leven
By the Riverside Man

He'll let one loose
Once in a while
To the tune Loch Lomond
Jimi Hendrix style
Hey Joe, you sing along
and float your boat
To the sound of the Leven
And the Riverside man

On the A82 in his pickup van
he's got Chuck on the wave
catch me if you can
Born St Louis near
where the great river flows
for all that a man's a man
Round here everyone knows
rare catch is a Riverside man

Picks up his Guitar
does the Riverside Man
finds a vintage bridge
Like only he can
He keeps it fluid
and he always will
too fast for muddy waters
but not for old Bonhill

His long hair hides a part
prehistoric water born primordial ear
Plays anything hes beyond good
without bourbon or even a beer
to match your every mood
The Riversides one man band
Once plucked the wire on Bonhill Bridge
Over the Rainbow by the Riverside Man

CHORUS:
Leven, Leavin
Hard rocks with an easy soft roll
Rhythm and blues
Riverside Man in a river of soul
John Lee Hooker, BB King,
Howling Wolf with a Big Mojo
Riverside Men play that thing
Feel it deep and let it Flow
