Fairport Convention - The Ballad Of Easy Rider Lyrics
The river flows, flows to the sea
Wherever that river goes that's where I want to be
Flow river flow, let your waters wash down
Take me from this road to some other town
And that's the way it turned out to be
Flow, river flow, let your waters wash down
Take me from this road to some other town
Flow river go, past the shady tree
Flow river flow, flow to the sea
Flow river flow, flow to the sea
The river flows to the sea
Wherever that river goes that's where I want to be
Take me from this road to some other town
All he wanted was just to be free
And that's the way it turned out to be
Flow, river flow, let your waters rush down
Take me from this road to some other town
Flow river go, past the shady tree
Flow river flow, flow to the sea
Flow river flow, flow to the sea

Fairport Convention The Ballad Of Easy Rider Comments
This is one of Sandy's best, and she had many excellent songs.
This was there best lineup , this is my church
Gorgeous cover. My father loved this version. Always makes me think of him.
it's waltz time
A thing of beauty, written by Roger McGuinn. The story goes that Bob Dylan wrote on a napkin: "The river flows to the sea, wherever that river goes, that's where I want to be..." and gave it to Roger McGuinn who did the rest. I don't believe Bob Dylan got any writing credit for it. The treatment that Richard Thompson and Sandy Denny give to this song here just sends shivers up and down the spine.
In this interview, Roger McGuinn says he "co-wrote" the song with Dylan but Dylan called him up at 3:00 in the morning and said he didn't need the money. Comes about the 57th minute of this interview called "A Conversation with Roger McGuinn": https://borntolisten.com/2019/07/13/july-13-happy-77th-birthday-roger-mcguinn/?fbclid=IwAR2A6ogeycN8sT8i9pxXyiC2gzI6EYGSgk4DmRVpc4Wwmcy8_rsmwxa7PSw
Beautiful. ..
This song was released on the Richard Thompson Guitar, Vocal album. And can also be found of the Sandy Denny Anthology, No More Sad Refrains.
Can also be found on the remaster of Unhalfbricking as a bonus track. Love this version.
