My daddy loved the mighty Mississippi River. A true fisherman. This song brings me to his love! A dream inside my mind, my daddy! He's passed, but this song is him to me! Thank Garth for love!!!! 🥰
I respect your sentiment and agree that his music is great but even musicians get exploited and I can't blame him for wanting to be fairly compensated for such great music. 💕
This is my all time #1 song long before I knew country music,I knew Garth and Randy and that was it for 30yrs still I'm 2023 this is my favorite song ever. Thank you Garth Brooks for THE RIVER,TILL THE RIVER RUNS DRY. ANNTTIONNETTE DAVIS
You know a dream is like a river Ever changin' as it flows And a dreamer's just a vessel That must follow where it goes Trying to learn from what's behind you And never knowing what's in store Makes each day a constant battle Just to stay between the shores And I will sail my vessel 'Til the river runs dry Like a bird upon the wind These waters are my sky I'll never reach my destination If I never try So, I will sail my vessel 'Til the river runs dry Too many times we stand aside And let the waters slip away Till what we put off till tomorrow Has now become today So don't you sit upon the shoreline And say you're satisfied Choose to chance the rapids And dare to dance the tide Yes, I will sail my vessel 'Til the river runs dry Like a bird upon the wind These waters are my sky I'll never reach my destination If I never try So, I will sail my vessel 'Til the river runs dry And there's bound to be rough waters And I know I'll take some falls But with the good Lord as my captain I can make it through them all Yes, I will sail my vessel 'Til the river runs dry Like a bird upon the wind These waters are my sky I'll never reach my destination If I never try So, I will sail my vessel 'Til the river runs dry
Damn! These lyrics really hit home. I'm a recovering addict and this song reminds me that "every day is a constant battle just to stay between the shores"!
Thank you. Was hoping someone did this. I remember in my early 20's (now mid 50's) visiting my sisters who were hanging out friends at our upstate cabin(from Long Island) and a coed group of us took a country drive in my boyfriend's Vw bus. We drove from SUNY Oswego to visit all at Cossayuna Lake. This song came on the radio, and my sisters and friends all new EVERY WORD and the singing was YOUNG, POWRFUL, AND PROVIDED SO MUCH FUN! SO grateful for the lyrics. God Bless You...Kelly

This was the first song by Garth i ever heard he actually made me open to country music i love his voice and hes just a plain badass singer hes one of my altime faves
My parents got me and my 20 year old brother a box full of vinyls and CDs that were exclusive for Christmas a few days ago. It was all Garth. We’ve grown up listening to Garth Brooks 24/7. The gift meant so much to us because we now have his actual music. Then, I turned the box over and there was an envelope taped to the bottom of the box that said “Merry Christmas” with red marking. I tore it off, opened it up, and said that my brother and I are going to Garth’s concert in Baton Rouge in April. This was such an amazing moment for me and him. I love Garth Brooks and his music. I’m 14 so I’m the only person I know besides my parents and my brother that likes his music.
It kills me! There's an entire generation who will never be exposed to him, because they only listens to music digitally. I have like seven garth brooks CDs in my truck (the only CDs I have), because I can't steam any of his stuff.
I love this song. My wish is that every young person would listen and understand the lesson in this song. I’ve started actually living now that I’m in my 30’s. Follow your dreams and give it all you have youngsters ✊🏼

One of the most under rated songs of how great it really is!Before you say a word I know what the song did in 1992 it was #1!It's much better than that to me!
So what can be bigger than a #1 hit, or being one of the biggest hits by one of the world's all time most popular entertainers? "Underated" is a word resevered for lesser successes.
@@robhollywood647 Yeah the number say that but there are a lot of people that don't think that that's a great song they think that they don't like Garth or the song actually a lot of people don't so that's what I meant by underrated I had a lot of people telling me that they didn't like this song only a few of them told me they didn't like Garth but most of them said that song wasn't as good or as big as it was made out to be so that's why I said that
Translation: Simply the best, in 1998 in Barretão and then in 2015, thank you Garth Brooks, you know what you did for us here in Brazil, may God bless you always
When I was in 5th grade my teacher sang this to me and my classmates on the last day of school, saying that when she was in 5th grade, her teacher sang the same song to her before summer.

Nice to see you finally uploaded the official version of the river jarrett! It is a great thing to hear from garth as we know it, but to this day a lot of us still wonder what causes him to be a democrat? 🤔 Is it his songs?, is it because of him being from oklahoma?, is it his main personal opinion?, or is it something else we're not too sure about? 🤔 Either way it just seemed odd that he would support both obama and biden, even though it was understandable to support bill clinton who wasn't as bad as those other 2. To this day i still have good vibes and a great knack to listen to his awesome songs, but he will hands down be 1 of the most rowdy on stage country artists to show an awesome time to the crowds from the 90s! 😎🆒️🤠👢 It's also great to see him and james taylor sing this song together from time to time, but i wish when he was live nowadays that when he sings the river he would at the last part of the song have the same uplifting tone as his official version here! If you wanna know what i mean by that it starts at 2:50. Also we hope he gets to come to north central mississippi later on to put on a small concert and get up close with the fans and people here about different things going on in our lives! 🇺🇸
I love this song because it played with my third grade class during a ceremony that he gave us hats. You'd know if you were in that class and i might have lost the hat, this song still reminds me of that time. I love Garth brooks!
The ONLY WAY of SALVATION is by accepting JESUS CHRIST as your LORD and SAVIOR by Faith in WHO HE IS and WHAT HE did for us at CALVARY'S CROSS 2000 years ago. He paid the sin debt that we owed GOD but couldn't pay by Laying down HIS LIFE on the CROSS and being RESURRECTED from the dead back to LIFE three days later. If we confess The LORD JESUS CHRIST as our LORD and SAVIOR and Believe in our heart that HE IS THE SON of GOD and place our FAITH and HOPE of SALVATION and EVERLASTING LIFE in HIS DEATH, BURIAL and RESURRECTION then we will spend Eternity with HIM in HEAVEN. Do NOT put your faith in anyone or anything other than JESUS CHRIST and HIM CRUCIFIED. May GOD BLESS you.
Nothing like speeding up all his music to allow clearance for it to be placed on RU-vid because Garth won't release his original music. Sad millions will never hear his music because he's just about his money.
I bought several Garth Brooks songs on iTunes last year including this one. Then I realized they were all covers from the same band. Sneaky lol. They’re pretty damn good covers, but it’s not the same.
