If I were born to be a river If a river is all I'd be I'd tell the giver of all of the rivers To make me the Tennessee [Verse 1] How many drops of rain roll Off of how many windowpanes Down to a valley low Where a river like me begins to grow I sing a mournful song As I rush and ramble along Oh dee-oh-dee-oh-dee-oh Oh dee-oh-dee-oh-dee, oh [Verse 2] I bury secrets deep I keep them down where the catfish creep Where the rolling tide Can't reach the things that I hide I hum a mournful tune In the Alabama June Oh dee-oh-dee-oh-dee Oh dee-oh-dee-oh-dee, oh [Chorus] And I sing Oh dee, dee-dee-dee Oh doo, doo-doo-doo Oh oh, oh-oh-oh Even the Tennessee river runs low [Bridge] When the sky is bright and clear Not a cloud above you You can float in knowing, dear That I was made to love you When the storm is raging All the light is fading The river sings along with me Reaching for that minor key [Verse 3] Color me blue and gray River, carry me fast away Flood all the rocks and grills On for the mighty hill I am the Tennessee See you down at the stormy sea Oh dee-oh-dee-oh-dee Oh dee-oh-dee-oh-dee, oh [Chorus] And I sing Oh dee, dee-dee-dee Oh doo, doo-doo-doo Oh oh, oh-oh-oh Even the Tennessee river runs low [Outro] The Tennessee river runs low Even the Tennessee river runs low
I AM SO EXCITED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have wanted this song from these beautiful women ever since I heard it on tiny desk!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have already purchased the album!!!!!!!!! I AM SO HAPPY!!!!!!!!!!
Love them, love this, love that they got Butch Anthony involved! Saw these women live in Nashville -- funny as heck and the harmonies are spot on. Wish them all the success due to them!
I heard this song on the radio earlier this evening and since then I've been listening to it non stop. It's so beautiful. I'd never heard of The Secret Sisters before and am very much looking forward to hearing their other songs (once I can tear myself away from this one).
It'a YES from me! I have just discovered these ladies! They have glorious harmonies and an amazing freshness to their sound so I want to hear more of their music! Regards from Australia
This song is amazing and you ladies just keep getting better! I had a friend ask me what you guys sounded like, and I told him it sounds like what the girls from the Shining would sound like if they had a soundtrack. The haunting nature of the vocals in this song are absolutely perfect. This is a truly great song, thank you!

NPR radio sent me here. I love this song.
Chills. My daughter once again finds me treasure.
Oh, I also sent it to my mom!
I love this song about where I live in this valley here.
I got to visit Nashville a couple of weeks ago. We had an awesome time! 🙂
Now this is music
Their harmonies chase and flow like a river in this song. It’s so magical.
It's amazing news that the album is finally happening and this song is just fantastic, these girls are what pure talent is all about!
Awesome harmonizing, clever story video.
Thank you BBC Radio 2 for introducing me to "The Secret Sisters". They are incredible.
If I were born to be a river
If a river is all I'd be
I'd tell the giver of all of the rivers
To make me the Tennessee
[Verse 1]
How many drops of rain roll
Off of how many windowpanes
Down to a valley low
Where a river like me begins to grow
I sing a mournful song
As I rush and ramble along
Oh dee-oh-dee-oh-dee-oh
Oh dee-oh-dee-oh-dee, oh
[Verse 2]
I bury secrets deep
I keep them down where the catfish creep
Where the rolling tide
Can't reach the things that I hide
I hum a mournful tune
In the Alabama June
Oh dee-oh-dee-oh-dee
Oh dee-oh-dee-oh-dee, oh
[Chorus]
And I sing
Oh dee, dee-dee-dee
Oh doo, doo-doo-doo
Oh oh, oh-oh-oh
Even the Tennessee river runs low
[Bridge]
When the sky is bright and clear
Not a cloud above you
You can float in knowing, dear
That I was made to love you
When the storm is raging
All the light is fading
The river sings along with me
Reaching for that minor key
[Verse 3]
Color me blue and gray
River, carry me fast away
Flood all the rocks and grills
On for the mighty hill
I am the Tennessee
See you down at the stormy sea
Oh dee-oh-dee-oh-dee
Oh dee-oh-dee-oh-dee, oh
[Chorus]
And I sing
Oh dee, dee-dee-dee
Oh doo, doo-doo-doo
Oh oh, oh-oh-oh
Even the Tennessee river runs low
[Outro]
The Tennessee river runs low
Even the Tennessee river runs low

ThanX! On a quiet cloudy day in The Cove FL this music is calming my spirit. What a wonderful gift.
Just heard them on Sat Morning CBS! Wow! I love them!

I heard them on the radio the other day, and I fell in love with them instantly. I need this cd in my car!
Seen this great duo Friday 30th March 2018 @Cottiers. Fantastic.

Harmonies like Mountain Man

@@michaelmurphy2976 poorhouse Rd, Seale, AL. May need to call to make an appt before you go. Look up Museum of Wonder, Seale AL or Possum Trot.
Damn! Awesome song! I hear this a lot on KBCS 91.3 FM. The ending is somewhat different from what's played on KBCS, but overall, it's the same. 🙂
U go Bella love Sasha
Great harmonies! Do they write their own songs?
Is this house of wonder open to visit?
Não é meu estilo de musica, mas elas tem uma bela harmonia vocal. Valeu.
Bout died when I saw they filmed at the drive thru museum 😂
