The River Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Sweet baby child won't you witness for me
I've been condemned honey Lord, they threw away the key
My own conscious mind is falling under attack
The Devil's throwin' bones right behind my back
[Pre-Chorus]
Hearts are burning
Full of your worst design
Surely we're learning
Oh Lord, won't you give me a sign
[Chorus]
Go down to the river
Come bring us your pain
Go down to the river
Come wash it all away
[Verse 2]
Comin' to you while you're twisted and meek
My name is Lucy, oh baby, I wanna be your queen
Come bring with you your sin and pride
Come sit with me at my side
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh Lucy, you sound so sweet
Think I better go tot his river; there's just a man for me to meet
[Chorus]
Go down to the river
Come bring us your pain
Go down to the river
Come wash it all away
[Bridge]
Goin' down x8
Goin' down x8
Oh Lord, I'm goin' down
[Chorus]
Go down to the river
Come bring us your pain
Go down to the river
Come wash it all away
