Ballad Of Easy Rider
Journey of Freedom: Mell & Vintage Future's Ballad Of Easy Rider
Lyrics
The river flows
The river is in motion
It flows to the sea
It continues its course towards the sea
Wherever that river goes
Wherever the river travels
That's where I want to be
Expresses a desire to be at the destination of the river
Flow, river, flow
Encouraging the river to keep flowing
Let your waters wash down
Asking the river's waters to cleanse and purify
Take me from this road
Seeking an escape from the current path or situation
To some other town
Yearning to be transported to a different town
All he wanted
Describes a character's simple desire
Was to be free
The character's ultimate goal is freedom
And that's the way
Summarizes the character's aspiration
It turned out to be
Reflects on how things unfolded as desired
Flow river flow,
Reiterating the plea for the river to flow
Let your waters wash down
Repetition of the desire to be cleansed and moved away
Take me from this road
Reiterates the wish to leave the current road
to some other town
Repetition of the desire to reach another town
Flow river flow
Continuing the metaphor of the river's flow
Past the shaded tree
Mentioning a specific point along the river's path
Go river, go
Encouraging the river to proceed towards the sea
Go to the sea
Urging the river to fulfill its natural destiny
Flow to the sea
Repetition of the idea that the river should flow to the sea
The river flows
Reiteration of the river's constant movement
It flows to the sea
Reiteration of the river's journey towards the sea
Wherever that river goes
Reiteration of the concept that wherever the river goes is the desired destination
That's where I want to be
Restates the desire to be where the river flows
Flow river flow
Repeated plea for the river to continue its flow
Let your waters wash down
Repeated request for the river's purifying waters
Take me from this road
Reiteration of the wish to be taken away from the current path
To some other town
Repetition of the desire to reach a different town
