I walked down that boulder road

Through a child's eye saw places

where I used to go

Where I crawled barefoot with a fishing pole

to the rock that overlooked that steelhead hole

but it's true silver river turning blue

It was a small town in a smaller world

Just a black dot on an old map

with its edges curled

Where they built their industries

on the edge of town

Leaching chemicals from underground now

it's true that silver river turning blue

Just got a late reaction

Face reality and stare it down

Sometimes it's harder hanging on

Much easier to look around

But I need that job Well this place no city

we're just small players here

Like a million other heroes

drinking poor man's beer

We know what's right

We're just living it wrong

But there's no easy answer

in the green man's song

What do you do

When your river's turning Blue

I walked down that boulder road

Through a child's eye saw places

where I used to go

Where I crawled barefoot with a fishing pole

to the rock that overlooked that steelhead hole

but it's true silver river turning blue

Just got a late reaction

Face reality and stare it down

Sometimes it's harder hanging on

Much easier to look around

But I need that job
