Roger Whittaker - Rough And Tumble songtext (lyrics)

If you looking for us, we'll be down by the river
My old dog Rough and I
Sitting side by side, looking down at the water
Silently glide by
And it seams to us that time is like water
It flows unendlessly
And I'm alive, for I won't leave Rough
He's live for he won't leave me

If you looking for us, we'll be down by the river
Where Rough stares at the sky
And I know that he hears
Something that I can't hear
No matter how I try
He turns his good ear to the sound
To hear it strong and true
I turn my head and lord be praised
I can hear it too

When oh, when oh
Are you coming home?
When oh, when oh
Are you coming home?

Hey Rough, can you hear you Tumble call
Within singing crowed?
Can Tumble hear you calling her?
She must – It's very loud
And did someone strike a mighty chord
Upon the heavenly harp
Now I recognize a voice or two
As usual singing sharp

When oh, when oh
Are you coming home?
When oh, when oh
Are you coming home?

If you looking for us, we'll be down by the river
Where time just rolls on by
Looking down at the water, flowing by for ever
Or staring at the sky
And until we've made up both our minds
On, how it's going to be
Then I got Rough and I guess old Rough
Knows that he's got me
He knows that he's got me

Common Rough, let's go home!
