Call Of The Nantahala River 

©2003 Michael Thomas

Verse 1 
I've been cooped in this city all week long.
Got to get out on the river where I belong.
Lay it all aside, hangout and hide
I feel the Call of the Nantahala the River.

Chorus 
I feel the call of the Nantahala river, it's calling me today
I feel the call of the Nantahala rapids, their calling me to play
At Pattons, Touble Dry, and Pop-n-Run
Pyramid, Delabar, Quarry and Root Canal
Whirlpool, Ledges and Surfing Rapids
The Bump, and Nantahala Falls.

Verse 2
Gotta grab my open boat and do a run.
Or take my funyak out and have some fun
or watch the rafts and have ... some laughs.
I feel the Call of the Nantahala the River.

Verse 3
Gonna surf, flip and roll at the falls.
Eddy in, peel out, trash and have a ball.
When I loose hope, I'll just catch a throw rope.
I feel the Call of the Nantahala the River.

Bridge
Can't wait, won't be late, Gotta go now, somehow
It's in my bones, I'll be gone to the Nantahala River
