(Kim Carnes/Dave Ellingson)
I could retire on a Caterpillar tire
Somewhere on a river in the great US
The world slidin` by
Every day is July
Just tubin` down the river with my mind at rest
Now man wasn`t made to stay locked up in a cage
And workin` all day ain`t that much fun to do
It`s gonna come to pass
I`ll leave the steel and the glass
Floating down the river down the tube with you
Reuben Reuben let`s go tubin`
Won`t you take me far away
We could live on love forever
And you know that life should be that way
Now maybe tomorrow find some time I can borrow
A dream just needs a window you can climb on through
Don`t wanna wake up some day to find that I passed away
Before I floated on a river down the tube with you
Floatin` down the river got my mind at rest
Down a lazy river now I`m living` my best
Sunshine on a river down the tube with you
