Theme song by America:

“Don’t Cross The River”

There’s a little girl out lyin’ on her own
She’s got a broken heart
She’s not the kind to take you down for long
She knows and plays it smart

(Ah-) And if she’s comin’ she’s showed no mark
She’s heard no whistle blowin’ from the dark
She feels like leavin’ and she don’t know why
Without no bridges she’s trapped, so I sigh

Don’t cross the river if you can’t swim the tide
Don’t try denyin’ livin’ on the other side
All your life
You were on your own

If you want you can ride my train
And soon forget the reason that you’re leaving
You’ll lose yourself and then sometime
Maybe even save yourself some grievin’

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Don’t cross the river if you can’t swim the tide
Don’t try denyin’ livin’ on the other side
Don’t cross the river if you can’t swim the tide
Don’t try denyin’ livin’ on the other side
Don’t cross the river if you can’t swim the tide
Don’t cross the river if you can’t swim the tide
Don’t cross the river if you can’t swim the tide ...

Fun fact....

The official album photographer, Henry Diltz, also played the banjo on “Don’t Cross the River”.
