River near Hill City, KS, where Dave grew up.
Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Rolling across those hills
Coming to our town
Cross that bridge, look on down
[Chorus]
South Solomon River
Running through the sand
These are our people, this is our land
[Verse 2]
Sometimes she runs
Sometimes she dries
The pulse of the land under this Kansas sky
Looking to the left
Looking to the right
Under the bridge and late at night
[Chorus]
South Solomon River
Running through the sand
These are our people, this is our land
South Solomon River
Under the sun
This is the place where we come from
[Verse 3]
All along the river
In a nature man
Shocks, the minnows, tadpoles, feet sinking in the sand
Walking up and down
All of the days
Like an island a thousand miles away
[Chorus]
South Solomon River
Running through the sand
These are my people, this is my land
South Solomon River
Under the sun
This is the place where we come from
[Instrumental]
[Verse 4]
Jump on a horse
Dirt bike or side by side
On the banks somewhere we ride
Once in a while
She would swell
A long story she could tell
[Chorus]
South Solomon River
Running through the sand
These are our people, this is our land
South Solomon River
Under the sun
This is the place where we come from
[Instrumental
